Crazy Socks Tuesday 2/28
Tuesday is Crazy Socks Day in honor of the book Fox in Socks. Wear mismatched socks, colorful socks, or whatever you can think of!
Please remember that clothing should still follow the dress code.
Mustache Monday - 2/27
Today is Mustache Monday. Kids can wear a mustache of their choice, in honor of the Dr. Seuss book, The Lorax.
In case you don't have an extra mustache sitting around, hormone therapy hasn't worked yet, and "No Shave November" has turned all the way into almost March, here is a simple idea.
A finger mustache.
Looking forward to Family Reading Night on Thursday at 6:30 and 7:00.
Monday – Focus Book: The Lorax – wear a mustache
Tuesday – Focus Book: Fox in Socks – wear your crazy socks
Wednesday – Focus Book: Wacky Wednesday – wear a wacky hairstyle
Thursday – Focus Book: Green Eggs & Ham – wear green
Friday – Focus Book: Cat in the Hat – dress like a friend (be twins)

Friday is Wear Red Day
Friday, February 3rd is "National Wear Red Day". This is a day to raise awareness about strokes in women and to promote being heart healthy. Students may wear red pants, shirts, or dresses on Friday.
Did you know that 1 in 3 women are living with a cardiovascular disease including heart disease and stroke? The good news is that 80% of cardiovascular disease may be preventable with education and action. That's why it is important to learn your family history, eat better, and be active.
