The year is going quickly and Thanksgiving Break is already here. Please remember that we are out of school ALL week. We will see you back on November 28th. Enjoy your time off!
**You may still see buses running but these are only picking up our high school students that attend Norwood**
Thursday, November 17th is HAT DAY! Students may wear hats, antlers, tiaras, hoodies, etc. for a quarter. Teachers may wear jeans for $1. All funds raised go to CTA for student scholarships.
Our school cookbooks have arrived! Mrs. Harley has worked hard compiling recipes for this year’s cookbook. We have a limited number available for purchase. Cookbooks can be purchased in the school office or by sending money designated “cookbook” with your child. They are $10 each.
The money raised from cookbook sales will go to the Sunshine Committee. This committee continues to bless our staff and students with gifts of appreciation, sympathy flowers, notes of encouragement, and more. The latest act of kindness is a Thanksgiving meal for Skyline staff. The Sunshine Committee, along with the following generous donors, provided Thanksgiving bags for all staff members today!
