Helping Our Bitterroot Community


Next Thursday & Friday, we as a Bitterroot Family, are going to be helping others less fortunate this holiday season. As part of Rachel's Challenge and doing Random Acts of Kindness, we are carrying out her wishes by helping others. Students in grades K-6 will have an opportunity to bring $1.00 on Thursday and chew gum and on Friday another $1.00 to wear a hat. The money collected will be to help families on the angel tree. Everyone is encouraged to participate, but this is optional, but again what a good way to "pay it forward" like our 4th grade classes did during the Flakesgiving Challenge.

Great stories-the Rudolph stories are coming along and are so fun & creative. Great job Team Hankins.
Speaking of Team Hankins, we had a very serious talk this morning in our morning meeting about working together as a team helping out and caring for others. We have had some issues as of late so we made a new class promise and had a sincere circular handshake. If your child can tell you one thing about the meeting, write it in their planner for extra $ at check in.

Congratulations to Tony, our new student of the week. We sure learned a lot about Tony and that he LOVES to write.
Have a great weekend and I hope you are cheering for the BOBCATS!!
