2-23-13 Daily Update

Parents,

Bike Hike.  Our 4th grade Bike Hike to Oak Openings is about 5 weeks away.  Surveying the class, about two-thirds said they had a properly fitted helmet.  All students are expected to wear a helmet on the Bike Hike, and there are no exceptions to this rule.  It is recommended that all helmets have a sticker that says it meets standards set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and should be the right size for your child.  If your child does not have and cannot afford a bike or helmet, please let me know and I will make arrangements to provide one or both for your child.  Also, when we have a nice spring day (today is not a good example), encourage your child to get off of the computer or game system and take their bike for a ride.  Better yet, take a ride as a family.

Snacks.  We are all out again.
