Weekly Mustang Reminders:
Send a water bottle and snack every day.
Our room can sometimes be chilly, so please bring a jacket/sweater to keep warm.
This week’s “Mustang Way” focus is:
Mustangs practice kindness when speaking to others. We do not tease, taunt, or call names. It is important for all Mustangs to use words that are kind, polite, and encouraging so we can all do our part to make school a welcome, safe, and respectful place for everyone.
We will specifically be talking about roasting on announcements this week, and why this behavior is NOT allowed at Shultz.
Important Dates:
01/13 - 3rd Grade Talent Show Auditions (See Below for more information)
01/19 - No School (MLK Jr. Day)
01/23 - Read-a-thon Fundraiser Kickoff!; Coffee Connections 7:45-8:45 in Cafeteria; PTA Family Dance (Book Character Themed)
Our Class Promise:
Be Respectful
Be Responsible
Be Safe
Be Mindful
Be Honest
Be Helpful
Be Kind
Treat others the way you want to be treated!
