Happy Heart Grams on Sale!
The Ebeling Student Council is trying to make Valentine’s Day a little nicer for the people here at Ebeling!
The “Happy Heart Gram” program will involve students purchasing a gram for 50 cents each and having it sent to another student or staff member at Ebeling to be delivered on Valentine’s Day. Each gram will be accompanied by a Valentine treat!
The students may purchase these special messages by returning them (with 50 cents for each one) during their lunch Tuesday, February 4th through Friday, February 7th. Additional grams will be sold during these lunch hours as well.
A gram is attached to this letter for your use. If you are interested, please fill it out and return it to school (with 50 cents) in an envelope to the attention of Ms. Lewandowski (or it can be brought to the lunchroom on the days of the sale). If you need additional grams, there will be extras in the front office!

How the 2020 Census Affects Children
The 2020 Census count impacts the federal funds that communities receive each year for programs and services that are critical for schools, students, and younger children, such as:
· Special education, Head Start, after-school programs, and classroom technology.
· Food assistance, including free and reduced-price school lunches.
· Maternal and child health programs.

CHILDREN PARTICIPATE IN OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
Daily outdoor recesses are a valuable factor in promoting healthy classroom conditions. Children are expected to participate in recess activities so they should wear adequate outdoor clothing now that the weather is getting colder. This includes boots, hats and mittens. It is important that children learn to be prepared for changes in Michigan weather. All students will remain indoors for supervised recess if the weather is inclement. Factors used to determine indoor recess include rain, wind chill and playground conditions.
