Thorp Families,

 

Although we enjoyed a brief period of outdoor recess last week, we hope you all have been staying warm this past weekend. 

 

Speaking of colder weather, please keep in mind our doors do not open until 7:00 A.M. We are having parents drop off their children earlier than that. This is a safety issue since it is dark outside and there is no staff to watch them. 

 

We had so much fun at the Spelling Bee last week. Everyone did amazing! Congratulations to our school winner, Aaron. We also want to recognize Oliver, the runner up, as he was the winner the past two years and made it to the City Championships in 2023 and 2024. Well done Keller family!



2nd Quarter has ended. Report cards will be sent home Friday. iReady and Star testing started and we will send out scores once they are completed.

 

2nd Quarter clubs ended. 3rd quarter club registration will be forthcoming. Those clubs will start the week of February 10th.  

 

Our Lost and Found is gaining momentum, and not in a good way. Please have your child check it at the playground entrance if they are missing items.
