We are glad each of our guests came to celebrate with us!

Here's the week ahead for our Falcons: Note: It is a short week with no school Wednesday through Friday.

🐾Fozzie Friday🐾 Fozzie loves Red Ribbon Week! Well, maybe not Hat Day😂 He got to wear his birthday hat again for hat day, but begged for it to be taken off. He also thought a moose was attacking Mrs. LeShae, but after sniffing her face, he realized it was only her hat! Then he went to see Mr Jenkins and saw some of his friends in Art class. This week he also visited PreK and Kindergarten, and got a lot of love from the teachers as well! Fozzie is so good at making our adults smile, too! Last, he had a few visits from some of our sweet kiddos! What a fun week Fozzie has had at school!

📣PK-4th Grade Families📣 LAST CALL for Registration! Cheer Camp is approaching quickly! TOMORROW is the hard deadline for turning in cheer forms and money. Thank you to all who have turned in a registration so far! It's going to be a great camp!!

This Thankful Thursday...we are especially thankful and EXCITED to share a little sneak peak of a new addition to our gym. We have had a great team to work with for our new bleachers and community to support us along the way. Get the full launch next Tuesday at our annual scrimmage game. Thank you Kelso C-7 Family for supporting our Falcons as we grow!

Subject: Update on School Food Delivery Policy Dear Parents and Guardians, We would like to inform you of an important update to our school’s food delivery policy. Effective immediately, third-party food deliveries (e.g., from services like UberEats, DoorDash, GrubHub, etc.) will no longer be allowed during school hours**. This decision has been made with the following considerations in mind: 1. Student Safety and Security: The frequent arrival of delivery drivers has raised concerns about the safety of our school premises. We must ensure that we maintain a secure environment at all times. 2. Health and Well-being: Outside food deliveries may not adhere to the school’s health and nutrition standards. We want to continue encouraging healthy eating habits for all students. If your family brings in treats for a party or birthday celebration, please have a member of your family deliver them to school (an adult or the student). Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and productive environment for all students. Sincerely, Kelso C-7 Administraton

📣What's Happening Wednesday📣 👐RED RIBBON WEEK Edition👐 We have had a great start to our Red Ribbon week festivities. 📣Monday: Red/White/Blue day and MAN did our 8th Grade class come in ready to show their spirit! Their class as a whole did AMAZING! 📣Tuesday: Hat Day! We had a variety of hats worn, which is always a popular dress up day. 📣Students also have the chance to win prizes for being the "best" in their class at each dress up day. We are spotlighting the top picks from Monday. 📣Last, our 6th graders are spotlighted during Social Studies as they convert short words into cuneiform (early form of writing) on clay tablets. We are excited to see what the rest of the week has in store for us!

🌟Student Spotlight🌟 Congratulations to these Falcons for earning Positive Office Referrals this week! We are so proud of you!

Here's the week ahead for our Falcons:

🐾Fozzie Friday🐾 If your child has received a Positive Office Referral in the last month, you will see that we now have an extra "admin" signature! Fozzie is giving his "stamp of approval" on all Positive Office Referrals! (Thank you to Mrs Hahn for a fun paw print stamp). Our youngest students think this is so cool! 😎 Happy Friday, Falcons!

🌟 Thankful Thursday 🌟 Today, we're extending a huge THANK YOU to our incredible volunteer volleyball coaches who have dedicated their time, energy, and passion to our Falcons this season! 🙌🏽 Your leadership, encouragement, and commitment have made a lasting impact both on and off the court. You’ve inspired our athletes to push themselves, grow, and have fun along the way. 🎉💪🏽 We’re grateful for your support and for being such important role models in our school community. 💙 Let’s give them a shoutout in the comments below to show our appreciation! 👏🏽👏🏽 #ThankfulThursday #VolunteerCoaches #Grateful #Community #EndOfSeason #FalconStrong

🌟Happy Boss's Day - Part 2🌟 Our CTA is showing all of the "mini" ways we love Dr Burger today! A "mini" arrangement of snacks for the staff to enjoy as we celebrate our one and only Dr Burger. Thank you, CTA, for taking care of Dr Burger on this special day!

🌟 Happy Boss's Day! 🌟 Today, we celebrate our incredible superintendent, Dr. Kim Burger, whose leadership, vision, and dedication inspire us every day. Thank you for your unwavering support and commitment to our community. To quote one of her favorites, Ted Lasso, Dr Burger helps us all to "Believe". She's there for us, supports us, and encourages us everyday. She helps us to believe in ourselves, every single day.

📣Student Spotlight📣 These amazing Falcons all received Positive Office Referrals this week! We are so proud of them and their big hearts!

Mrs. Wagner and the 8th Grade class just wrapped up reading "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton. Today, the class dressed as either a "Greaser" or a "Soc" (Mrs Lands and Dr Burger participated as well). They also had a "bologna sandwich and Pepsi" party as well! Mrs. Wagner is our amazing middle school ELA teacher and she found a creative way to bring life to their book study. Great Job Mrs Wagner and the 8th grade class!
