READ ACROSS AMERICA WEEK
Read Across America Week is this week! This annual celebration of reading and literacy is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community and emphasize the importance of early literacy in our children's lives.
Reading is not just a fundamental skill; it is the key to unlocking a world of imagination, knowledge, and endless possibilities. By fostering a love for reading from an early age, we empower our children to become confident, creative thinkers and lifelong learners.
Throughout the week, we will be hosting a variety of fun and engaging activities designed to inspire a love for reading in our students. From guest readers to themed dress-up days, there will be something for everyone to enjoy.
We encourage you to take this opportunity to read with your child at home, explore new books together, and celebrate the joy of reading in all its forms.
Together, let's cultivate a community of readers and learners, nurturing the minds of our children and shaping the future one story at a time.
Happy Reading!
JOG-A-THON is FRIDAY, MARCH 8!

It’s that time again Morse families! We will be hosting our annual Jog-a-thon fundraiser on March 8th. This year it will be our only school-wide fundraiser so let’s make it a good one! Last year we raised an impressive $19,000. We think we can do even better this year! Our goal is to raise $20,000 to provide funds for our field trips, assemblies, school programs, classroom materials, and more! Please help us reach our goal by gathering pledges from your family, friends, and community members. You can turn in the pledges by cash or check (please return in the envelope that your student brought home this week) or electronically at Pledgestar.com/Morse. All pledges are due by March 8th.
A few weeks after the Jog-a-thon we will have a celebration day full of prizes and, back by popular demand, sliming of the teachers! The top earners for each grade will have the chance to slime a teacher! And if we reach our fundraising goal, Mrs. Farrell will get slimed! Our top earning class will also enjoy a pizza and ice cream party! Please join us during this exciting opportunity and raise some money for our school. Go Wildcats!
