Sage Elementary canned food drive was a huge success! We collected 1,766 pounds of food during the drive. Thank you for your donations! Mrs. Moon's class collected the most and won a Pizza Party.

Please make sure to label your student's coat and other outer wear. Due to the consistent growth of our lost and found items, we will donate unlabeled items to a local charity.

The weather has changed and students are wearing warmer shoes, including snow boots. Please make sure your student has P.E. approved shoes available in their backpack or cubby. For student safety on the gym floor, students must wear tennis shoes.

Thank you for your help!

End of the day activities are important for your child's success. Teachers review homework, give reminders and finish up instruction. Early pick-ups not only interrupts teachers, but disrupts the end of the day for other students. Please help us limit disruptions by observing the following guidelines:

• Notify the office, as early as you can, if you are picking up your child for an appointment. When picking up your child early, please come to the front door of the school for your child's safety.

• Call before 2:30pm (1:30pm on Wednesdays) if you need to change your child's after school plans.

• Do not pick up your child early to avoid parking lot congestion. Research shows coming to school late and early pick-up can negatively affect student performance. Early pickups are recorded as missing part of the day.

We want to team with you so your child has a positive learning environment.

Our PTC is having a See's Candy Fundraiser from January 9th to January 23rd Students will collect orders and payment. See's will ship the order to Sage and our PTC will notify families when their order arrives. There will be class prizes for the most sales. Information will go home with students soon.

We appreciate your support!
