Remember, pennies and bills count as postive points for your grade and put silver coins(nickels, dimes, and quarters) into other grades to give them negative points. Jugs are located in the office.

Oct. 10 is national Walk to School Day, and Snow School is planning to participate.  We are encouraging all families to consider walking or biking students to school that day.  A healthy lifestyle, including sufficient exercise, improves student achievement. Does your child get the suggested 60 minutes or more each day of physical activity?  More families walking would also reduce traffic congestion around the school.  Snow PTA will provide a small gift to all the students who participate on Oct. 10.
For more information, visit the Walk & Bike to School website at https://www.walkbiketoschool.org/.

Hello Snow Parents and Staff!!
We are extremely excited to be on the PTA this coming year, and we want to hear from you!! Attached is a link to a 10-question survey that we are asking everyone to fill out. Our hope is that with your insight we can make the 2018-2019 school year the best ever!  Please take the 5 minutes to fill it out so we can start working towards this goal!
Also please subscribe to our Blog and our Facebook group to get up to date info on events, fundraisers and other great information about our fabulous school!  (For Facebook, you no longer need to be a PTA member.  Just answer a few questions so we can establish your connection to the school.)
We are also looking for a Secretary to join our PTA board for next year, if interested please email Michelle Giles at michellegiles25@gmail.com
Thank you so much for your feedback and for being GREAT Snow Parents and Staff!

Parents:  Please send your child to school with gardening gloves- if you have some- for Monday, April 30.  All of our students and staff will participate in a belated Earth Day activity.  The action we are taking is to spruce up and clean up our school grounds.  We will be picking up trash and garbage and pulling weeds.  Thanks in advance!

Thank you for all of the parents who attended our visit to Stout Middle School.  I know your child will have great success at Stout. I already miss them.  Don’t forget about our IEP Level Change Meeting for 5th grade parents only on May 21st.

Thanks again for a great group of students
