Masks:
This is a reminder to all families to please make sure to send your children to school with extra face masks. As the day wears on they can get hard to wear and a fresh new mask is appreciated, and often essential.
Teal Pumpkin Project:
Here is some information on the Teal Pumpkin Project, a project raising food allergy awareness for Halloween. This is a way to let families know that you will be providing non-food treats at your house for trick or treating.
All School Meeting
This past Wednesday we had our first All-School Meeting of the year! It was held outside on the hardtop in front of the gazebo, and it was a gorgeous morning. The children gathered quietly at their seating locations, while two fifth-graders strummed on ukuleles. Greetings were exchanged, and then Mrs. Graham’s class performed a skit that reminded us all of the “Three Be’s” at Cutler: BE RESPECTFUL, BE RESPONSIBLE, BE YOUR BEST. In their skit, they demonstrated how to remember to use the “Three Be’s” when lining up at dismissal time. It was a creative skit, with an important message for all.
We then played a “New Staff Game”, with four staff members who are new to Cutler this year participating. Fun facts about each of the four staff were written on separate pieces of oaktag, without names on them. Children came up and tried to match the facts with the staff members (as the whole audience looked on and tried as well). Once the matches were made, each staff member shared a bit more about their fun fact. The students practiced saying all of their names - and were pleased to get to know some new members of the community even better. We will continue to play this game at All-School Meetings.
ASM is a great way to build community and we look forward to one next month. Students will take more and more responsibility for leading the gatherings throughout the year!
Superintendent Meet & Greet
In an effort to improve district communication, Interim Superintendent, Eric Tracy has been hosting meet and greets across the district and the last one this month is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 19th in the High School Cafe at 8:30 am. ALL of the meetings are open to ANY parent with students in the district who would like to learn about the district initiatives, goals, and ask questions. We hope to see many of you on Tuesday.
