Message from Mr. Ohnstad
As you know the weather is changing and we are beginning the winter season. Please make sure you have provided all of the necessary winter clothing for your child. We try to go outside for recess everyday all winter if the weather allows. If you would like assistance with this we are more than happy to help. Please reach out to our social worker, Tiahna Edevold, and she will assist you with this process.
REMINDERS
No School on Veteran's Day - Friday, November 10
No School for Thanksgiving Holiday - November 23 & 24
Thank you to our Parent teacher Organization for all your help you do to support Phoenix Elementary students and teachers. The dinner you provided during conferences was great and well enjoyed by our teachers and staff. The next event for PTO is Turkey Bingo on the 21st, please come with your children and have a fun filled night of bingo and pizza.
Thanks for everything you do in your home to support your child's learning. We have great kids here at Phoenix and we feel blessed for the opportunity to educate them.
