November 2024

Superintendent's Nest

Welcome to November!

We have the Circle of Lights coming up the day after Thanksgiving, November 29th from 5:00-7:00 pm. This is a time we open the school up to everyone to come and see our school. The whole town will be decorated and glowing with cheer. If you would like to help decorate the school or town there is a committee formed and they are always looking for new members and/or helpers; I can get you in touch with them. The PTC orchestrates a wonderful fundraiser with “The Cookie Caper .” Donations of freshly baked cookies of all flavors are readily accepted to create an assortment of boxes to purchase. The PTC will also be selling hot cocoa and there will be crafts children can participate in throughout the classrooms. They will also be selling tickets to raffle off baskets. All of the proceeds go directly back to the students, staff and school. This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase our unique school and community.

Students continue to bring home a book monthly to add to their home libraries compliments of donations from the South Haven American Legion and community members. Remember Readers are Leaders!

Sincerely,

Jamie Walle

Superintendent/Principal

Glenn on the Go

Third, Fourth and Fifth Grade took a trip to Lansing. They visited the Capitol Building and the Michigan History Museum. This field trip happens every three years and is a part of learning about Michigan History. A big THANK YOU to the volunteers who drove and made lunches.

Michigan Resources

Students learned about resources of the land used throughout the years.

School House

Students toured a replica of a 1890s schoolhouse. Many of them were quick to point out that our school was older!

Entering the Capitol

Students entered the building through the visitor center.

Capital vs Capitol

Students started the tour by learning fun facts about the Capitol Building, like the difference between capital and capitol.

Building Tour

Students got to see the glass floor and the starry dome of the capitol in addition to the house and senate floors.

Star Student

Congratulations to our October Star Student, Chloe L!

Many staff members have commented on Chloe L.'s growth as a student this year. In the classroom, you can find her studiously focused on learning or helping her classmates solve problems. Chloe always puts her best foot forward in academics, friendships, and playing, frequently going above and beyond what's asked of her. We look forward to seeing what else she can achieve this year!
