R-PTLE Weekly Family Communication

Dear Families,

This week, while in front of the students in the gym before the day begins, I have been talking about telling those around you when you are thankful or grateful for them. I bring it up after the Thanksgiving weekend to remind them that we can be thankful all year around and we can express to others when we are grateful for them any day or every day.

I am grateful for our staff and students! I am grateful for our Twin Lake community. There is no doubt that we have a wonderful place to teach and learn!

Can't wait for another awesome week at Twin Lake!

Big News: Art rotation begins this week with Mrs. Bos!

New Information:

Sincerely,

4th graders who not only display the Rocket Way (Respect-Pride-Integrity), they also consistently display a helping hand, a thoughtful gesture, and/or a general positive affect on our learning community. These students will engage with supporting younger students and take on other various leadership roles during the next two weeks.

Congratulations to this round of RBK's!

This Month's Theme is Responsibility!

What is Responsibility?

Responsibility is the willingness and ability to take ownership of our thoughts, words, and actions. We have a responsibility to our school, family, and community to be accountable for our choices and how they impact ourselves and others.

The October menu is still on the top of the page as Monday and Tuesday still need to be seen. The November menu is on page two. I will delete the October menu this week when November is in full swing.
