School Doing Church Service at Kennewick Spanish
This Sabbath our students and staff will be putting on the church service at the Kennewick Spanish Seventh-day Adventist Church. The Service begins at 11:45, a little later than many of us are used to, and we are asking those students who will be participating to be there by 11:30. Following the worship service we have been invited to participate in a potluck lunch hosted by the church members. We are also asked to bring some of our own favorite dishes to contribute to the meal. The church is on Washington Street (301 South Washington).
Christmas Concert
This year’s Christmas program, held December 15, will primarily feature the students in the elementary grades. The program begins at 6:30 and should last a little longer than an hour. Followed by refreshments, you could be done by about 8:00, so come on out for a fun evening.
Indoor Shoes Needed
As our Physical Education classes have moved indoors, it has become apparent very quickly that there is more work to taking care of a wood floor than there is to taking care of a cement floor. One of the problems we encounter is when things such as rocks or mud from outside are slid across the wood. For this reason, we are asking that students bring indoor PE shoes to be stored in their lockers for just this use. The shoes do not need to be new – just clean. We also ask that the soles be non-marking. We would like to have this in place by this coming Monday. Thank you.
Dress for the Outdoors
Even though we will have much of our Physical Education activity indoors for the next few months, we still like to head out of doors whenever the weather cooperates a bit (or in the case of snow, even when it doesn’t cooperate) to play. Parents, remember to dress your children with jackets and gloves (mitts) to play outdoors. Most recesses will happen there all year long.
Annual Bake Sale…
This Friday the Grade 1 & 2 class is selling baked goods for ADRA Relief. Every dollar raised by the class has $6 added to it by other donors so the benefits add up quickly. Bring spare change to buy sweet things.

Mr. O’s Pick…
I asked Mrs. Canaday if she has a student who is just all around the most helpful, and without any hesitation, she said that Mackenzie Wright helps everyone, everywhere. We want to thank you for being so quick to make the lives of others meaningful, Mackenzie. Your Monday Muffin is on us.

Muffins…
Students like them and they’ve been a big hit, but they need to be picked up at the start of lunch or after the school day. Students are staggering in at all times during the lunch period, even when they should be headed to class, so we will only serve them for the first ten minutes of each lunch period. Thank you for adjusting.
