The auction was a huge success, and the students and staff at Mt. Hall are so appreciative of everyone who participated. In case you are wondering what the money from Mt. Hall Auction goes towards, I thought I would mention a few things. Teachers and programs at Mt. Hall are given money to spend in their classrooms, special field trips that go beyond what is allocated by the District’s budget, playground equipment, t-shirts for all Mt. Hall students and plays and assemblies. Again, I can reiterate enough how important this auction is to Mt. Hall. Thanks again for the support! Fun times are happening at Naples too! Miss Chloe Cavender, the PE/Music teacher at Naples Elementary, invited a talented group of performers to Naples to perform a play called "Living Through the Fire." The play is set around the famous fire that swept through Idaho. The students really enjoyed the production, and were impressed at how quickly the actors and actresses could change their costumes. In other exciting Naples news, Mrs. Jennifer has been busy prepping for the upcoming Read-a-Thon. A Read-a-Thon is a fundraiser with all proceeds going towards our library. There might be some Wolverines asking you to sponsor them. As we get ready to transition to spring, students and teachers are wrapping up third quarter. With spring comes state testing, and I know that the third, fourth, and fifth graders have been working hard in preparation for the upcoming assessments. Not all the work is being done in the upper grades though. The kindergarteners, first and second graders are working just as hard. This is the time of year where we really start preparing the students for next year. Speaking of next year, if you have a future kindergartener, make sure and mark your calendars. Mt. Hall Elementary is having their kindergarten registration on Thursday, April 20, from 8 a.m. to noon. If you plan on enrolling your kindergartener at Mt, Hall, please call Beth Butters at (208) 267-5276 for an appointment. Naples Elementary is having their kindergarten registration on Friday, April 28. If you plan on enrolling your kindergartener at Naples, please call Linda Lee at (208) 267-2956 for an appointment. We look forward to meeting our future Wildcats and Wolverines. Boundary County School District 101 understands the importance of involving parents in their child’s education. Some parents aren’t aware that they have the opportunity to take a parent survey. The survey is intended to help the District provide an excellent education to all of our students. If you are a parent, and if you would be so inclined, please visit our website and take the survey. I want to personally thank all of you who support the students, staff, schools and programs of Boundary County School District. I feel blessed to work with these wonderful children and fine educators. It’s a privilege to work in a community that places so much emphasis on quality public education. Thank you! Until next month, Go Wildcats! And Go Wolverines! |
