I'm sorry for the late notice, but we are having our dress rehearsal this morning at 10:00 am and parents are welcome to attend if you can make it.
Christmas Program Sunday @2:00 pm (also livestreamed)
Students should go to their classroom; parents please keep their coats. Cast should be here at 1:30 and all other students arrive by 1:45. A reminder that this is a Christmas program only (due to Covid restrictions), no cookies or Santa. See you on Sunday!
This Thursday, SPPS will have a new principal, Mr. Gage Parrish. Gage will be the "Principal for the Day" and has decided to implement some fun things. Students will have a Pajama Day and enjoy a movie. He is taking care of the snack during the movie, and students may bring a blanket, pillow or stuffed animal to watch the movie. A super-fun day!!
Students have been working hard preparing for our Christmas program this Sunday, Dec 12 @2:00 pm.
Cast members have their costume details and should be here by 1:30 pm.
All other students should wear dress clothes/Sunday best and be here by 1:45 pm.
See you on Sunday - either in person or live stream!
Thank you to everyone who has signed up to help on a parent committee! Just a quick clarification... the GPD Auction is the committee to do the soliciting and collecting of items and the set up/clean up for the auction. We will have a sign up for additional help on the day of the auction at a later date.
Reminder: Send a stocking for St. Nicholas by Friday.
Also, check your email for a link to sign up for parent involvement and Christmas parties. Thank you!
Casual Day tomorrow. Don’t forget to have your child bring a stocking, shoe, or sock by Friday for St. Nicholas’s visit. Thank you!
No school today Nov 22 or tomorrow Nov 23 due to a positive exposure. All students should monitor for symptoms. We will see everyone on Monday Nov 29.
I am very sorry for the late notice; SPPS is canceling school for tomorrow Nov 22 and Tuesday November 23 due to a positive exposure. All students should monitor for symptoms. We will see everyone back on Monday Nov 29 and the calendar will be adjusted at the end of the year. Thank you for your understanding.
SPPS Bus: I sent this message on Sunday, but wasn't aware that you needed to enable your notifications for the SPPS Bus to receive so I'm resending.
There won't be a SPPS bus on Friday, Nov 19 as I don't have a driver. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
SPPS App Update: We now have different notification groups set up (band, SPPS bus, and grade levels). Please go to your settings and under Push Notifications, choose the groups your children are part of and that will allow notifications to pop up when they are sent to that particular group. Thank you for updating this!
*(Employees and SPPS Teachers groups are for SPPS staff only)
