Thankful. Our staff is thankful for the partnership of parents here at

3-5 - 7:30 each individual student and discuss his or her social, emotional and

to better meet the needs of our students. If you have additional

From the Art Room:

Square 1 Art:
Thank you to all who made a fuss about your artist and their Square 1 Art stickers. It’s so fun hearing all of
the cool and creative ways kids have used their stickers and seeing how affectionately they have been
shared. Thank you also for supporting your young artist and our Art program at Park with your orders of
keepsakes. The orders will be sent home at the beginning of December. Congrats to the 2nd graders who
won an extra clay project this year for having the highest percentage of participants per grade level.
Follow me on Instagram! I have created another way for everyone to stay more connected with what’s
happening in the Art room. I think this will be a perfect fit with imagery being the drive for quick
communication. If you haven’t set up an account and would like to it is really simple. Please follow me on
Instagram at bettertogetherart (https://www.instagram.com/bettertogetherart/). I’ll be posting pictures of kids
working, artwork and other glimpses into the art room, school and life. I will continue to blog as well. I plan to
still post to this blog (http://amandaandersonart.blogspot.com/) along with the district wide Hudsonville Art
Program blog (http://hudsonvilleartprogram.blogspot.com/). I look forward to sharing more of the art room
happenings this weekend on Instagram. So create an account if you haven’t yet and start following me at
bettertogetherart!

ELF FACTORY
Forms have been sent home. We are getting ready for our annual
ELF FACTORY! We are looking forward to helping your
children create keepsake ornaments. Due to the liquidation of
the company, all available ornaments have been pre-ordered and
have limited quantities. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they
are received. If an ornament your child has ordered is no longer
available, they will be able to choose a replacement ornament at
the Elf Factory. This year, each child will receive a pre-selected
free ornament to create at school. Every ornament after that is
$2.50 each. Attached is a great photo of all the assembled
ornaments. If you have any questions, please feel free to call,
text or email me. Thank you!

CALLING ALL SNOWBOARDERS/ SKIERS!

Do you like to ski or snowboard? If so, this opportunity is for you, your family, and your friends. ANYONE can be a part of this. This makes the
perfect Christmas gift for those people in your life that enjoy skiing and snowboarding. It's only $17 to join the club which can save you lots of
money at Bittersweet Ski Resort in Otsego, MI. The "club" part of this is really for middle & high schoolers, but YOU get the opportunity to take
advantage of the exact same savings. Here is out it works: You purchase a $17 pass and then it only cost you $17 for a lift ticket each time you
go. The normal lift ticket price is $38. So just going one time you have already saved money. Do you need to rent skis or a snowboard? Your
pass will allow you to rent either skis or snowboard for only $17. The normal rental is $27.
