Happy November!

Happy Election Day from East Hill!
We have a lot going on here at school today! You will need to stay tuned to find out who the election winner is in Mrs. Tynan's room - students are casting their ballots for Duck, Teacher, and Clifford later today!


In Mrs. Devereaux's room students casted ballots for the actual presidential candidates. We will have to wait and see!



Community Giving
Each year the PTA, with a great deal of support from our East Hill Community, helps to put together Thanksgiving meals for East Hill families and also organizes a Community Giving campaign to help out families who could use some additional support with holiday gift purchases. If you could use a little extra help at Thanksgiving or Christmas this year, please let me know. We would love to provide a helping hand! Just shoot me an email (lcraig@westgenesee.org) or give me a call (315-487-4648.) 

Perspective
This week's character strength focus is perspective. Perspective means you appreciate when people see things in different ways. You have the ability to understand the world from multiple points of view. This strength may be invaluable in the coming weeks! For more about perspective, click here.

School Photos
School photo make-up day is Friday, 11/20. Remote students who need their pictures or need a retake should plan on coming between 10:00 and 10:45. Please bring your first package with you if you are getting a retake.

Instructional Setting Changes    
Please be on the lookout for a letter from the elementary principals regarding requests for changes to your childrens' instructional setting.

Remote Students
As a reminder, pickup of supplies for grades 2, 3, and 4 is on Monday, 11/23 from 12:00 - 3:00. Several people did not come pick up their school pictures last week so if you need to pick them up, you can also plan to do that on 11/23. 

Thank You, PTA!
Thank you again to the PTA for the donation of over 350 pumpkins last week!! Here are just a few of the ways that they were decorated!















Have a great rest of the week!
