What's Happening at Rees?
5th Grade Course Selection for Maple Grove Middle School
Maple Grove Middle School will be here on Monday, February 3rd for a course selection assembly for 5th grade students. Students will come home with a course selection form to fill out and bring back to school. These forms will help counselors build schedules for students next school year. Please take time to go over the courses available with your student. If you have any questions, contact your teacher. The forms are due back to school on Monday, February 10th. For students attending Diamond Fork Middle School, more information will be coming soon.

Fiddle Tunes Assembly
We are excited to invite Arts Inc. to Rees on Thursday, February 6th. Arts Inc. provides professional performances centered around music or dancing. Last year we had break dancing and they did not disappoint! This year we will have a string band called Fiddle Tunes. This will be an exciting assembly to teach students how fun it can be to learn how to play music.

Counselor Corner
"Friendships take work to make and keep. The foundation of any friendship is kindness. Everyone deserves our kindness, even if you’re not best friends or if the other person looks different, acts differently, or thinks differently than you.
The golden kindness rule: Treat others the way you want to be treated" (In Focus Education Group).
We look forward to celebrating Kindness Week February 10th - 14th!
