from Mrs. Nagle
Happy Back to School, all! It is great to be here!
This year’s Accelerated Reader program theme is “Get Caught Reading!” Students in grades 1-6 will be coloring a fish to represent themselves on the wall outside the Library. As they read and take quizzes on the books, they will earn points toward the 20 goals I have set. Each time they reach a goal, their fish will move down the wall, and they will receive a certificate and prize. We will also have the 100-Point Field Trip goal again this year. To earn a spot on the field trip, students need to reach 100 points by the end of May 2nd.
Logo Club
LEGO Club is back, as well! Permission slips were sent home this week, and must be returned before students can attend. LEGO Club will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:15-4:00 p.m. Any schedule changes will be shared asap via the school announcements, school social media platforms, and/or via Remind. LEGO Club is a great opportunity for students to engage in creativity, collaboration, & constructive play.
Also, I am happy to help support your child’s success here at school. Feel free to email me at katie.heger@underwoodschool.org , call 442-3201, or reach out using the QR code.
Fruit and Veggies offered for snack Prek-6th Grade.
Starting the week of September 16th, we will be providing fresh fruits and/or vegetables to all students in Pre-K through 6th grade on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On these days, you do not need to send a snack with your child, as we will be supplying these healthy options at school.
The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) is a federal initiative that provides free fresh fruits and vegetables to students in participating elementary schools. The program is designed to offer these healthy snacks during the school day, outside of regular meals like breakfast or lunch. Its primary goal is to enhance children's diets and foster healthier eating habits, with the aim of improving their current and future health. By introducing a wider variety of fruits and vegetables, the FFVP supports schools in creating healthier environments and encourages increased consumption of nutritious foods among students.
We encourage you to help your child try and enjoy these snacks. Your support in promoting healthy eating habits is greatly appreciated!
