Week 13 Newsletter

It's hard to believe that the first trimester is already over! The year is flying by! This week we used acrylic paints of the first time to create shadowing on our pumpkin portraits, we put together our book club Bloom's Balls, and learned a little about the First Thanksgiving. It was a short week, since we have Friday off in remembrance of Veteran's Day.

I also started Report Card conferences this week! I look forward to meeting with all of you over the next week. Please check the Sign Up for your times, if you do not remember.

Next week is a short week full of minimum days. Monday is the only full day of school and the students will have Band & Strings.

Kindess to Caring

KINDNESS TO CARING

Join Mohr Elementary as we connect with a Santa Rosa Elementary School

We will be collecting Gift Cards from Nov. 6-Nov 16th.

Dear Friends of the Sonoma County Fire Victims,

Nine families that are a part of the Proctor Terrace Elementary School in Santa Rosa lost homes in the fires and are currently moving into new housing.  They have literally lost everything.

In the days since the disaster there has been amazing outreach and generosity.  We appreciate the effort to reach out to families that are a part of a school community similar to yours.  Since the disaster there has been an abundance of clothing and school items available and the children have had their immediate needs met.   

All of our families that lost houses are currently in the process of relocating.  They can use items to rebuild their homes-kitchen wares, linens, books, children’s games, toys... most everything you could think of.

We suggest gift cards from Target, Wal-mart, Bed, Bath & Beyond, because they have a variety of items or a cash donation.  The donations will go DIRECTLY to the families.     

We will definitely share where their gifts came from or if you include a card, please let them know personally.  

From the bottoms of our hearts and from Proctor Terrace Elementary to you, THANK YOU!

Mohr Elementary has connected with Proctor Terrace Elementary in Santa Rosa. Many of our current 5th graders were penpals with students from this school when they were in Mrs. Huggins' class in 3rd grade. I hope you will consider donating a gift card that can help a few Santa Rosa families start to rebuild their lives.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Friday Folders/Progress Reports

Tomorrow is the official end of the  first trimester. Report card conferences begin on Wednesday, November 8th and end on Thursday, November 16th. It is a busy two weeks as I prepare all the students' grades and meet with every family.

As a result, there will not be any Friday Folder or Progress Reports for the next few weeks. They will resume once we return from Thanksgiving Break.

Thank you!
