Spots and Dots at The Studios of Key West!
Everyone is invited to come by the Studios of Key West either on the opening night from 6:00-8:00 pm or anytime that weekend! Books and Books will be holding a Book Fair that benefits our school as well. What better way to come and find a new favorite book and experience the creativity and hard work of our collective student body? See you all there!
In Store Book Fair
Your student will be coming home with a coupon at the bottom of the Family Update for the In Store Book Fair this weekend at Books and Books at The Studios. If you lose the coupon, please see the one attached here. Our school will receive 10% of all sales from the fair when the coupon is presented. Come out and get a few new things to read and then stop by the Spots & Dots installation on the second floor of The Studios of Key West! Hope to see you all there!
NJHS Bake Sale this Wednesday, April 3rd
Support our NJHS members as they host a bake sale this Wednesday, April 3rd at dismissal. Come and get some sweet treats from 3:15-4:15.
Spell-a-thon and Shape-a-thon is Here!
It's that time of year again! Our students are super excited to help raise funds for their school, they have set a goal of $15,000 for this year too! You should have received the information below as well as a pledge sheet and a list of spelling words (or shapes from our Seahorse classroom). If you did not get this information, please reach out to your lead guide and they will be happy to send it to you again!
Students will have until April 12th to study for the big quiz day! Between now and then, please help them with asking everyone they know for pledges. Some folks like to pledge a flat fee for the whole thing while others will pledge money per each correct answer. After the results are in, begin to collect those pledges!
Thank you so much for helping us with this fun and student-involved event!
Remind 101
Many of you saw the text message that came from our new Remind101 app. This is going to enable us to communicate more on the spot with all of our families. We are currently looking into bigger and better ways to make this the easiest and accessible program to all of you. If you did not get the invitation or did not receive the text message on Monday, please be sure to follow the directions below:
Text @maysandsmo to 81010.
If you are a new user, follow the prompts.
- Enter your full name, and then S for student, P for parent, or T for teacher.
- You will then get a confirmation text in a separate thread. You can save that phone number for the class.
If you need a video tutorial, please see the links below. Let us know if you have any questions!
If you already have a Remind account or are already signed up for another class, see this video for help:
