Friendly Reminder: Tomorrow, Tuesday April 4th will be Spring Picture Day so be sure to bring those smiles!!!
The 6th grade class will be doing the annual Easter Egg sales starting on Monday! They will be selling them in the morning by the gym, and the cost is 1 egg for $.50 or 3 for $1.00!
Our Leadership Assembly scheduled for this afternoon will now be moved to Thursday, April 6th at 2:30. This gives students who didn't get their Habit #6 Family Connection sheets completed an extra week to do so.
In an effort to be cautious and get everyone home safely we will be dismissing two hours early today, Friday, March 31. We will follow up as soon as possible to confirm the rescheduled time of our leadership assembly. Thank you.
Good Morning. We are continuing to gather information about the severe storms headed for our area today. Our goal is to remain in school all day. We will be talking with experts at the National Weather Service midmorning. At this time our main concern is having our buses on the roads during periods with high potential for damaging winds and tornadoes. If it is decided that an early out will be our safest option, that decision will be announced by 11:00 am. Stay posted for updates.
Due to the high potential for severe storms tomorrow, we are cancelling LEAP after school on Friday, March 31. Thanks!
Just a reminder tomorrow we are celebrating the opening day of baseball and the start of spring sports. We are excited that so many of our students are involved in these outdoor activities. Students are encouraged to dress in baseball/softball attire, hats, eye black, etc!!
We have 45 students who have turned in their Family Connections Activity for this month. That means there are about 100 students out there who can still get this done tonight and turned in tomorrow. Students who get this turned in tomorrow will be recognized at our assembly and will earn their Habit #6 Tag. If you lost your Habit #6 packet, you can print one off by going to https://drive.google.com/file/d/14PO1biSfGSHJLaGYFYK_TrH8TMWAv3Ue/view?usp=sharing

Take a moment to watch our 4th-6th grade production of The Mystery of the Gumdrop Dragon. The students worked with Ms. Houzenga and two of her Easton Valley High School students on Tuesdays during LEAP. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rrdXGcd0Q_atZeG929nJCCNjSJJucZjS/view?usp=sharing
The 5th & 6th graders are taking orders for custom Andrew Hawks t-shirts, produced by the students themselves! Shirts will be short-sleeved Gildan 5.3 oz. cotton in either black or sport gray with your choice of the above designs. To view in color, check the school website or your child’s SeeSaw. Sizes include Adult S-2X, Youth XS-XL, and Toddler 2T-6T. The price per shirt is $10. Or bring in your own shirt, and we will add the Andrew Hawks design of your choice for only $5. By doing the work ourselves, we are able to provide a quality product at a reasonable price to our Andrew School community while still making a profit for our class trips. It’s a WIN-WIN! Sample shirts are available to view in the office. Orders are due by March 29th in the office. Thanks for supporting our fundraising efforts!
