The stack of goods gathered for
this year's Mt. Hall auction once again
brought in a lot of help for school
programs. |
As we say goodbye to winter and hopefully the
snow, I need to reflect on the amazing events
and incredible efforts put forth last month. To
start, a huge thank you to everyone who donated,
supported, and organized the Mt. Hall Auction.
Annie Sundstrom and the PTO did an outstanding
job!
The auction was a huge success, and the students
and staff at Mt. Hall are so appreciative of
everyone who participated. In case you are
wondering what the money from Mt. Hall Auction
goes towards, I thought I would mention a few
things.
Teachers and programs at Mt. Hall are given
money to spend in their classrooms, special
field trips that go beyond what is allocated by
the District’s budget, playground equipment,
t-shirts for all Mt. Hall students and plays and
assemblies.
Again, I can reiterate enough how important this
auction is to Mt. Hall. Thanks again for the
support!
Fun times are happening at Naples too!
Miss Chloe Cavender, the PE/Music teacher at
Naples Elementary, invited a talented group of
performers to Naples to perform a play called
"Living Through the Fire." The play is set
around the famous fire that swept through Idaho.
The students really enjoyed the production, and
were impressed at how quickly the actors and
actresses could change their costumes.
In other exciting Naples news, Mrs. Jennifer has
been busy prepping for the upcoming Read-a-Thon.
A Read-a-Thon is a fundraiser with all proceeds
going towards our library. There might be some
Wolverines asking you to sponsor them.
As we get ready to transition to spring,
students and teachers are wrapping up third
quarter. With spring comes state testing, and I
know that the third, fourth, and fifth graders
have been working hard in preparation for the
upcoming assessments.
Not all the work is being done in the upper
grades though. The kindergarteners, first and
second graders are working just as hard.
This is the time of year where we really start
preparing the students for next year.
Speaking of next year, if you have a future
kindergartener, make sure and mark your
calendars.
Mt. Hall Elementary is having their kindergarten
registration on Thursday, April 20, from 8 a.m.
to noon. If you plan on enrolling your
kindergartener at Mt, Hall, please call Beth
Butters at (208) 267-5276 for an appointment.
Naples Elementary is having their kindergarten
registration on Friday, April 28. If you plan on
enrolling your kindergartener at Naples, please
call Linda Lee at (208) 267-2956 for an
appointment. We look forward to meeting our
future Wildcats and Wolverines.
Boundary County School District 101 understands
the importance of involving parents in their
child’s education. Some parents aren’t aware
that they have the opportunity to take a parent
survey. The survey is intended to help the
District provide an excellent education to all
of our students.
If you are a parent, and if you would be so
inclined, please visit our website and take the
survey.
I want to personally thank all of you who
support the students, staff, schools and
programs of Boundary County School District. I
feel blessed to work with these wonderful
children and fine educators. It’s a privilege to
work in a community that places so much emphasis
on quality public education. Thank you!
Until next month, Go Wildcats! And Go
Wolverines! |
