It was great to see so many families during parent/teacher conferences last week. There will be a minimum day on Monday and parent/teacher conferences will continue in the afternoon. When visiting the school for conferences, parents should enter via the front door. You will need your driver’s license to sign in. Please be sure to leave enough time to park and sign in before your scheduled conference time.
We held our November school-wide meeting on Wednesday. The Student Council Executive Board led the meeting by introducing themselves, leading the school in a greeting, and playing a fun game of Would You Rather. Student Council President Leo gave a brief speech about Council plans for the school year.
The Wyckoff Education Foundation (WEF) will hold a Thanksgiving Pie fundraiser. Parents may pre-order now through November 14th. Click here for more information.
STUDENT COUNCIL COAT DRIVE
Looking to help others this holiday season? The Coolidge Student Council will be partnering with One Warm Coat to host a Holiday Coat Drive! Families are encouraged to donate gently used coats to benefit The Boys and Girls Club of Paterson. There is a large need for children's coats, but coats of all sizes will be accepted. The drive will be held from November 27th to December 1st. Students should bring the coats to school and drop them in the collection bin near the front entrance. (hold off bringing in coats until the week of 11/27)
AUTHOR VISIT INFORMATION AND BOOK PURCHASE OPPORTUNITY
Thanks to the generosity of the PTO, author Wendy Mass will be coming to Coolidge School on Friday, December 8th. She writes wonderful chapter books for both older and younger students. She will talk about her writing process and get students excited about their writing. We can't wait!
In preparation for her visit, we are offering the opportunity to purchase personalized autographed books. Please use this form to order books that you want autographed (and personalized if you want). Thanks to the generosity of The Curious Reader in Glen Rock, we can offer these books at a discount. Please return the form to Mrs. Needleman by Monday, November 20th.
