THINGS TO KNOW:

Gingerbread Houses! The winter season is an exciting time for elementary students! While we keep as much of the time focused on learning as possible, we do have some fun traditions that we love to sprinkle in throughout the weeks.

 

It is a tradition at Somerset for First Grade students to make Gingerbread Houses. We are scheduled to do this on Friday, December 15th.

 

We are in need of donations and volunteers for this project. Please click on THIS LINK if you would like to donate or volunteer!

 

Thanks so much!


SHHHHH Secret: I will be starting a Kindness Countdown to winter break. Starting Monday, December 10th, each day we will pull 1 chain link off our countdown and do, make, create, or share something special! Feel free to ask your child each day what we do! 

Important Dates:


December 13: PTA Meeting (6-8 pm. Childcare available)
December 15: Gingerbread Houses
December 21: Winter Break Begins
January 2: School Resumes

Picture Time!
