Month: December 2017

Fitness for Kids

Exercise keeps kids physically and mentally healthy. Children need at least one hour of physical activity a day to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Getting active improves the immune system, makes bones stronger, and decreases risks of diseases later in life. Starting exercise at a young age can prevent certain types of cancers and will help blood pressure and bone density in the future. From rollerblading to joining a sports team, there are many options to get kids out and about.

Wear Your Most Hideous Holiday Outfit

On December 20, students will get in the spirit of the season by wearing their most extreme, outrageous holiday outfits for Holiday Cray Cray Day. In a school-wide competition, the person with the most hideous holiday apparel wins a pizza party for their class.

Giving Back Year-Round

The holiday season is often called the season of giving. We remind our children that it is important to give to others less fortunate than us around Thanksgiving and Christmas because not everyone gets presents or has warm clothes to wear in the cold months. Parents can carry on the season of giving and make it a year-round occasion that kids will look forward to.

Winter Formal and Braid Bar

Jr. High students will have an evening they’ll always remember at this year’s Winter Formal on December 15 from 6-8 p.m. Girls that would like help getting ready can sign up for an appointment at the Braid Bar.
