I just received a check in the mail for $300.00. Thank you everyone...kids, parents, neighbors, and grandparents for collecting these and getting them to school. Your contribution may seem small but when everyone contributes the totals add up.
These dollars are used for special programs we bring to our school and for items that our classrooms are needing. Thank you, thank you...continue with your efforts!

Early Childhood Playgrounds will Receive Updates
Schaller-Crestland’s Early Childhood Playgrounds will
receive updates this spring gearing up for the 2012-2013 school year. We are excited for the additional pieces of
equipment, benches and learning centers we will be able to add to enhance the
outdoor play we currently provide. We
applied for an Outdoor
Playground Improvement Grant through Annette Koster, BVCS ECI Program
Director and have received close to $2000.
A big thank you goes out to Annette Koster and BVCS Early
Childhood Iowa for their generosity.
Thank you for supporting our Early Childhood
Programming!

Principal Pickhinke helps to build a playground in Seattle, WA
Elementary and middle school principals from around the nation will work together to build a playground Wednesday at Hawthorne Elementary School during the National Association of Elementary School Principals’ fourth annual Community Service Day.
One hundred principals will work with some of their Seattle colleagues to create the playground space that meets the needs of all children.
The service day will take place as a part of the association’s annual conference, which is being held March 22 to 24 at the Washington State Convention Center. The Community Service Day is sponsored by NAESP and corporate playground-equipment partnerLandscape Structures.
Hawthorne Elementary School is a Title I school located in the Columbia City neighborhood in Seattle.
Of the school’s student population, 79 percent receive free or reduced-price lunch, 32 percent are English-language learners, and 15 percent in special education classes. The school features a Spectrum Program, which supports highly capable students, and a program that combined art and technology.
The inclusive playground will be invaluable to the school, Sandra Scott, principal of Hawthorne, said in a statement. It will “allow equality and access for all students, which is what we’re all about,” Scott said.
Spring Concert on May 1st
This will be our last concert of the year for elementary. We look forward to seeing all of you!
