Principal's Report:
- A Big Thank You to all the parents, students and staff for help during Accreditation.

- Accreditation took place last week. The official report of findings will happen soon, but overall the school was "Effective / Highly Effective" in the report and the Accreditation team was impressed with our environment of learning.

- The Success Appeal is currently chaired by parents in the 8th grade class, so looking for a new chair person or team to head up next year and shadow this year. The golf tournament is already covered. 

- The Dessert Dash / Appetizers for the Auction is also chaired by current 8th grade parents and will need a replacement. Great opportunity to shadow job duties during this years auction for those interested. 

- Serena Griffin who is the After School Care Director has accepted a full time job elsewhere and will need to be replaced by the new year. Job description will be posted soon. 

- This is the end of the 1st Trimester.

- Reminder: Sick kids need to stay home from school 24 hours after fever or vomit. 

 

New Business:

- Trunk-R-Treat: Wrap-up - It had a more open feel and good lighting. Candy management with wagon worked well and no small toys.

- Book Fair: Fun event for the students and pairs well with the Read-a-thon. Ashlee Rimmereid said set-up and tear down went well, but it needed more volunteers. Total sales are not all in yet, but teachers are getting lots of free books. If anyone is interested in chairing for next year, Ashlee will help. 

- Santa Parade (Dec. 7th): Wendy and Ashley said decorating went smoothly. Theme for the Parade is "I'm coming home for the Holidays" and will honor active military and veterans. Students who want to walk in the parade and hand out candy canes / toy soldiers need to be at the float by 8am in their school uniform. Judging will occur around 9am, parade will start at 11am. Wendy requested $40 for more tubs to store parade decorations (they made sure most decore is repurposable). Mike motioned for $80, Lisa seconded and all approved. 

- Dutch Bros Fundraiser: Ashley contacted them and they donate items for auctions, but we will have to request one in June for next year's auction.

- Santa Shop: Coming soon! volunteers are needed.

- Christmas Program / Cookie Social: Moved to Dec. 18th. Parents sign-up to bring cookies and warm cocoa (check to see if cocoa was on parent's square sign up).

- Auction (Feb. 29, 2020): Volunteers needed and procurements due soon. Check out the Amazon wish list for items. Ashley and Hannah will have volunteer opportunities for parent to wrap baskets upstairs at the parish center and Parents Club agreed to provide coffee for this. Next Auction meeting will be Dec. 16th at 4:30.

 

Old Business: 

- Kidsignment: There is a sale in progress.

 

Open Floor:

- Wreaths: Mike motioned, Tyleen second and all approved for Parents Club to purchase 2 wreaths from the 5th grade class for the front doors of the school. 

- Free dress voucher for  parents who attend  Parents  Club.

- 1 volunteer hour for parents who attend  Parents  Club.
