Weekly Scout Report ~ Oct. 28, 24

Many families are planning for Halloween already. I wanted to make all families aware that we will have a Halloween parade at 2:45 on Oct. 31st. The following will NOT be allowed regarding costumes: horror/scary, face paint, masks, weapons, or inflatables. Students MUST be able to use restroom independently during the day.

Reminder - no school Friday, November 1, 2024.

We will have a Food Drive Nov. 4th through the 8th. Below is the flyer for the Food Drive.

Please consider donating gently used clothing to Nike Elementary for kids who need a change of clothes when accidents happen. Any season attire is welcome. Drop off items at the main office. Thank you for your generosity!

Please make sure Donations are:

• Clean (please was clothing before donating)

• New and gently used (clothing that could be shared with family or friends)

• No rips, no tears, no stains, no holes

• Nothing personalized (with name, etc)

Just a reminder, if you need to change you child(ren)'s transportation in the afternoon, please call the Nike office before 2:45.

The doors to the parent pick up line will close at 3:45. If you are picking your child up from SACC after school, please park and walk to the SACC entrance.

Reading at home with your children is one of the most powerful ways to support their learning and development. By reading together, you expose them to a wide variety of words, helping to expand their vocabulary and understanding of how language works. Make reading part of your daily routine! Even 15 minutes a day can make a huge difference. Let's inspire a love for reading as we Grow Together!

Parents can either sign the form online, or come to the registration night.
