Frontier Days is a great time to get some fun activities in with your children, and so many of them are educational. Take advantage of the Behind the Shutes tours that are free to the public, this is a great tour behind the scenes of the rodeo. The tour guides are always very nice and the children usually get a badge to wear. While you are there have your kids count the number of cowboy hats that they see. Another great activity are the parades. Help you children count the horses in the parade (there are a lot!!), and try to read where all the rodeo queens are from.

Class Announcements Overdue booksSeveral times during the year I will send home overdue notices with your children. The notices list the books that are overdue and the price of the book. When I send the notices home, I do not expect to be paid for the book at that time, instead I would like the book to be returned. Books do not need to be paid for until the end of the school year. Many times students will say that they don't remember checking out a particular book. I will ask them to look in their classroom, their back packs, their rooms, etc. the books are almost always found. Please remind your children that when they check out a book they are responsible for it, and they should not be lending them to their friends. If you ever have a question about books that your child has checked out, please feel free to call me at school. I am always happy to visit with parents and guardians.
