Join us for "Ice Cream for Books and Numbers"
The Sunrise literacy and math committees are hosting "Ice Cream for Books and Numbers" on Thursday, November 9 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. This is a great opportunity for parents to engage in learning activities with their children in the area of reading and math and see some of our curriculum resources. There will be guest authors, games, and lot of hands-on activities to do. Students will have chances to win prizes and ice cream sandwiches will be served in the cafeteria.
Honoring Veterans
As we prepare to recognize Veterans Day at Sunrise, we are offering an opportunity for families to contribute to our celebration of honoring Veterans.
We will be creating a "wall of fame" in our main hallway, and families are welcome to create a poster honoring Veterans special to them. Information on the posters should include the Veteran's name and branch of service and picture of the Veteran if possible. Students may decorate the poster however they choose. If you don't have a specific Veteran in mind, we are also looking for general posters to thank all Veterans. The "wall of fame" will have a red, white and blue theme. Posters should be on 11x17 paper. Students may get poster paper at school.
Completed posters should be brought to school by Monday, November 6 to allow volunteers time to hang them up. Thank you for your support as we honor those who serve our great nation.
