AlertNow Message: December 11, 2022

Good evening, students and parents!

This is Lauryn Duncan, Principal at Douglass Elementary School with a few announcements for the week.

Parents, please remember that our school’s canned food drive, sponsored by our Functional Skills classes, will end Friday, December 16th. We encourage students to continue to bring in canned food items. The class who collects the most items will receive a small prize. We appreciate your help and support with this event.

A remote learning letter and packet was sent home with your child on Friday. Please be sure to read the letter as it specifies when your child needs to complete the attached assignments. Your child does not need to complete the assignments attached unless we have winter weather and a message from our district indicates a remote learning day.

Parents, we would like to invite all of our students to participate in dressing up as we celebrate the last 5 days before Winter Break. We ask that your child wear their favorite holiday socks on Monday, wear red and white on Tuesday, dress up like a present on Wednesday, wear a tacky sweater on Thursday and wear appropriate holiday pajamas on Friday.

The PTO Holiday Store will be open throughout the week. The store hours were shared on dojo last week. Also, our next PTO meeting will be Tuesday, December 13th beginning at 5:00 pm in the media center. Our PTO invites you to attend the meeting.

Parents, please remember that there will be no school for students beginning December 19th-December 30th. Students and staff will return to school January 2nd. We wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season and Happy New Year!

Lauryn Duncan
