Sock Drive
Our annual winter Sock Drive was a huge success! We collected over 1,460 pairs of socks to keep less fortunate community members warmer and drier this winter. The top three classes with the most socks collected were: 1) Ms. Demello's class; 2) Ms. Mohs' class; and 3) Ms. Quinn's class. The socks were donated to both the Visalia Rescue Mission and the Bethlehem Center. A huge thanks to all of our students and families who participated!

Reading During Winter Break
If you're in need of books, there's a vast digital library of books available through Sora. There are even magazines like Highlights (in English and Spanish), National Geographic Kids, Minecraft World Magazine, and much more.
According to the experts, it is best to read to your child early and often, but it also is never too late to start. Reading aloud with children is linked to these powerful results:
- Expanded knowledge and vocabulary
- Improved attention span and memory
- Increased curiosity and imagination
- Greater self-esteem, empathy, and confidence
- Stronger, closer relationships
- Higher educational achievement and quality of life
Check out tips for reading with your child from The Children's Reading Foundation. There are also lots of Elementary Student Resources on our VUSD Library Media Services website.
Happy Holidays!
We'd like to wish everyone a wonderful and safe holiday season! The GLC Weekly Newsletter will also be taking a break over the holidays. Our next newsletter will come out on Sunday, January 9.
