Grizzly Growl 12/2
Dear Grizzly Families,I hope you were able to have some snowy fun today! Stay safe and warm this weekend. I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday.Morning and Recess Weather Guidelines – Families, I wanted to be sure you’re aware that our weather guidelines, which determine indoor mornings and indoor recesses, are to bring students inside at 22 degrees, or when it’s raining or snowing heavily. Please be sure to send students to school in clothing that’s suitable for the weather outside.December Character Trait – Granite Elementary will be talking about respect. Mrs. Ross, our school counselor, will read “Whoever You Are” by Mem Fox to grades K-1, “Thank you Mr. Falker” by Patricia Polacco to grades 2-4, and “Trouble Talk” by Trudy Ludwig to grade 5.Snow Day Alerts – if you did not receive alerts about our snow day today, please reach out to the office. It is possible that we have your landline listed as a primary phone number. I strongly recommend downloading the Parent Square app onto smart phones as well, so you have instant information.Questions to Ask Your Students
