Proud Pirate Friday: Fridays will be Proud Pirate Fridays! We are encouraging all students and staff to wear their Proud Pirate shirts every Friday!
Teacher/Staff Appreciation Around the Corner: Teacher/Staff Appreciation is just around the corner! To help spoil teachers, I am collecting $10 gift cards to give to staff during appreciation week. These gift cards can be to anywhere that staff may enjoy...local stores in Crane, or Walmart, McDonalds, Starbucks, McAlisters, Hobby Lobby, Target, etc. We have 69 staff members who have an impact on our elementary students each day. If we do not get enough for each staff member I will do random drawings with the gift cards we receive! If you would like to donate a gift card, please drop it off or send it with your child in an envelope labeled, "Staff Appreciation".
CSCO Princess Ball: Princess Ball forms went home a few weeks ago. Any princess aged birth through 6th grade and an important adult is invited to attend this event. Forms and money are due by Friday, April 22, 2022. We need your help with decorating, working at the ball, and/or cleaning up! We are also asking for donations of food and drink items. To sign up to help or provide food or drinks, please visit this link.
Save the Date: Kindergarten Graduation has been set for Tuesday, May 24 at 6 PM. Details will come out closer to time! Kindergarten students will have their photo taken in their caps and gowns on Thursday, May 5. If your child is absent that day, he/she will miss out on this opportunity.
Still Important...
Kindergarten Preview: If you have an incoming kindergarten student, mark your calendars for Friday, April 29, 2022 for Kindergarten Preview. It will be from 8:05 AM-10:25 AM on that day. Incoming kindergarteners and their parents will get to eat breakfast in our cafeteria, visit the kindergarten classrooms, tour our school, visit the Book Fair, play on the "big" playground and take a short bus ride! Be watching for more details coming home soon with current preschool students!
Cox CARE Mobile Coming to Crane: The Cox CARE Mobile will be coming to Crane on May 5th and May 11th to provide students with needed services. They will be offering PK/K immunizations and sports physicals for students in grades 5th-12th grades who plan on playing a school sport. Details are shown in the image below. If you would like a permission form sent home, please contact Nurse Tena through email, Dojo or phone. 417-725-5300 ext. 1402.
No Honor Choir: Honor Choir will be taking a break from practices for a little while. Stay tuned for when these practices will start back up!
Absences: If your child is going to be absent from school, regardless of reason, we need you to call the Elementary office to let us know. If you call before anyone is at school, please leave a voicemail letting us know your child's name and reason for absence. The office phone number is 417-723-5300 ext. 1301.
Transportation Changes: We understand plans can change throughout the day. If transportation plans change for your child, please call the office to let Whitney know so she can ensure your child gets the message. Some parents have been messaging teachers on Dojo and there are days teachers do not see messages until after students have left for the day. We would hate to miss an important message! The Elementary office number is 417-723-5300 ext. 1301.
