Week of Feb. 4th - Feb. 8th

Our rainforest party is on Wed., Feb. 6th from 1:30 - 2:30. We will be playing Rainforest Jeopardy, sampling foods from the Rainforest, and dancing the Limbo. We can't wait!

Congratulation students! The students in 3A have earned a Citizenship Celebration for being respectful, responsible, and safe citizens of May Watts. We will celebrate by having 15 minutes of game time. On Friday, 2/8, the students may bring to school a hand held electonic game if they have their parents permission. The students are responsible for their games. If they are lost or broken, it is the students responsibilty. (The students may not use the internet nor send any messages.) The students may also bring board games, decks of cards, or any other games of their choice. Let's continue to be respectful, responsible, and safe, and have a wonderful time!

We are still finalizing the date, but Terri Hancock, Director of Education from the Naperville Humane Society, will be coming to visit with her therapy dog. She will visit for 15 to 20 minutes to discuss the training of a working dog and the proper care for an animals. Please notify me if your child has a dog allergy. Thanks! Miss Anco

Here are a few reminders since we have some important events happening:

Please see below regarding Mr. LeCrone's letter regarding Valentines Day.
Please see the tab above with a list of student names for Valentine Cards.

Much Appreciation to you all,
Miss Anco

Dear Parents,

Valentine’s Day is not far off and prior to your shopping for this day, I am taking this opportunity to remind you of the guidelines in our Parent Handbook regarding Valentine’s and treats:

“Please do not attach any treats on Valentine’s cards (i.e. candy bars, etc.), due to the possibility of a child with a deadly peanut/nut/food allergy receiving the items. Valentine’s with candy attached will not be permitted in any classroom.” We want this day to be special for all students by keeping everyone safe and we do not want to disappoint any child who may bring items to school to give out and then is not permitted to do so.

The PTA will be providing the students with cupcakes and a Capri Sun during the party. The cupcakes are from * Whole Foods Market in Naperville. The ingredients are as follows for the cupcakes:

CAKE: SUGAR, FLOUR, CANOLA OIL, BAKING POWDER, TAPIOCA FOOD STARCH, DEXTROSE, SALT, SOY FLOUR, XANTHUM GUM, CELLULOSE GUM, BETA CAROTENE, VANILA EXTRACT, EGGS, CANOLA OIL, WATER, FROSTING: POWDERED SUGAR, BUTTER, PALM OIL, SALT, COLOR (BEET JUICE, MALTODEXTRIN, SUNFLOWER OIL). (CONTAINS: WHEAT, EGGS, SOY, MILK). The pink buttercream frosting consists of powdered sugar, palm oil shortening, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, sea salt and annatto (natural plant based food color). Please be aware the cupcakes may be made in an area where tree nuts are available.

If your child is unable to have the treat provided because of allergies, you should have already notified the school nurse of this situation. You are asked to provide your child with a treat that he/she can have if they have allergies to the cupcakes being served.

Finally, alternative activities will be planned for children whose families choose not to participate in this event beginning at 2:30 p.m. Please contact Mr. LeCrone through email in order that appropriate activities can be arranged. His email is: brian_lecrone@ipsd.org.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Brian LeCrone

Principal

* The May Watts PTA would like to thank Whole Foods for partnering with the PTA. Whole Foods offered a tremendous price break in order to provide our children with a healthier, more natural and delectable party treat.
