Welcome to the Principal’s Corner
Don’t forget to wear PINK this week!! PINK SHIRT DAY, is an opportunity to stand together in support of being KIND and spreading KINDNESS every day and every where. We encourage and hope to see all students, staff, and parents wearing PINK on Wednesday, FEBRUARY 28!
Please send indoor shoes with your child. ALL STUDENTS must change into indoor shoes to keep our school clean and protect our gym floors. Need help finding extra shoes? We are happy to help, please let us know!
Have a fabulous week!
– Susanne Stroud, Principal & Kathy Kloschinsky, Assistant Principal
LEADER In ME and assembly
When we use Habit 4: Think Win-Win, we also learn how to make a sincere apology if we have hurt others.
Congratulations to all students who earned Wisdom Leader certificates for the past month!
Elementary students enjoyed a fun activity break during the assembly.

BASKETBALL NOTES
If our teams have home games, you can find them on our school calendar. We are always happy to have fans at our home games. Please use the Community entrance at the back of the school when coming to watch basketball games. Thanks so much! There were some exciting games in basketball this past week. We caught team pictures of both Junior teams this week after some great game time.
EXTRA-CURRICULAR REMINDERS
In an effort to enhance communication around extracurricular opportunities, we have created a digital sign up for all activities as they become available. This google form is required for students to participate and to help us with our planning. Once practices begin, parents will fill out the required permission forms in PowerSchool and pay the applicable fee.
If your child is interested in participating in any extracurricular activities, please use the sign-up forms that will be posted in this section. You can access each form by clicking on the images below.
Elementary Floor Hockey & Flag Football is starting soon! Click on the sign up images below if your child is interested.
SPIRIT WEAR STORE
As you know, we were excited to launch the opening of our new online school spirit wear store with Lil’ Buckeroo Designs. Thank you to everyone who purchased some new Duck Gear.
The store is still open and you have an option to ship to your home or do a pick up in the shop in New Sarepta. Deliveries to the school only happen when we do a school wide campaign like we just completed prior to Dec. 10. We will let you know when new items are added and when we plan to do another school wide order. Don’t miss out on your chance to get some new spirit wear. You can visit our store by clicking on this LINK. Goooo Ducks!

HOT LUNCH
Click on the image above to order hot lunch.
The Hot Lunch Program is up and running. It runs from October to June.
Menus will be loaded into the system in groups: October to Christmas break, January to Spring break and April to the end of the school year.
The Hot Lunch online order system requires a small amount of setup time at the beginning as you must register each child you have attending our school prior to ordering.
In order for vendors to fulfill our Hot Lunch orders, we need to close ordering from 10 – 14 days in advance, therefore, please ensure that you place your Hot Lunch order before each deadline. The deadline is noted on each vendor menu.
