Yesterday's Move-A-Thon was a big hit with the kids! They had a blast playing dodgeball, capture the flag, and "moving" at all of of the other fun activities. The Move-A-Thon would not be the success it has always been, without the terrific parents and staff members who put in countless hours. Thank you all, for making this year's Move-A-Thon so wonderful!
There are a lot of updates in this week's notes below.
Rolls Needed!
The math science center needs toilet paper and paper towel rolls. After the paper is gone, please bring your cardboard rolls to the bin outside the office labeled "ROLLS".
Red Ribbon Week:
Red Ribbon Week continued today with High Five Friday! Thanks to Officer Joshua Gray, Sergeant Jessica Humphrey, Sergeant Devon Kimball, and School Resource Officer Danielle Nightingale for greeting our students this morning with high fives and words of encouragement. Check out pics HERE. The Bedford Police Department is also participating in National Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, October 27th. Please click HERE for more information.
BOX Tops:
We have collected to date a total of 1,650 box tops which is $165.00 for McKelvie. Please check your cabinets for expiring box tops. November 1st is a popular expiration date. We can’t send in expired box tops for credit. Final pickup of box tops for submission is October 29th. Every box top counts!
Holiday Cards for our Troops:
A big thank you to the McKelvie families who donated blank cards and a hearty well done to our students who made, decorated, and wrote supportive messages in cards during the last two weeks. McKelvie contributed almost 700 cards that will shortly be on their way to deployed locations around the globe where they will brighten the holidays of soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen who will be deployed in harm's way through New Year's and beyond. Great job, McKelvie!
Library News:
The McKelvie Library just received a shipment of 55 NEW books! They have all been cataloged and processed! Many of them are in the hands of our McKelvie readers.
The PTG brought Rocky by for a visit! Click HERE to see Rocky reading at the McKelvie Library. He is reading the same book as the Before-School Book Club!
Stay dry and warm this weekend! ~Mrs. Cote
WITCH WAY FUN RUN EVENT UPDATE EMAIL
It looks like the Wicked Witch of the West is playing a cruel trick on us with the weather for the Lurgio Witch Way Fun Run on Saturday, October 27th. Instead of a tornado, we are getting a Nor'easter. In keeping with our theme of more FUN, we have decided to move our fundraiser indoors, which means we have been able to add more games and activities for the whole family to enjoy.
While we won’t be able to trick or trot down County Road, we will be taking our bibbed participants through the school to visit our Halloween-themed pit stops on a journey that culminates in the gymnasium and dining hall with the fun activities of our Witch Way Family Fun Fest. In addition to the costume contest and raffles prizes, we will also have Halloween-themed crafts, inflatable bounce houses, face painting, pumpkin decorating, and so much more!
Schedule of Events:
9:30-10:30 Registration and bib/t-shirt pickup (Media Center)
9:30-11:00 Halloween-themed Pit Stops Open (Lurgio Hallways)
9:30-12:00 Food, Crafts, Activities and Games (Dining Hall and Gym)
10:45 Raffle winners drawn - winners posted and prize pickup (Lurgio Gym)
11:00 Costume Contest winners announced (Lurgio Gym)
11:00-12:00 Food, Crafts, Activities and Games in (Dining Hall and Gym)
We want to thank all our sponsors, participants, and volunteers for their flexibility as we adjust for the unpredictable weather this weekend. We look forward to a great community turnout tomorrow for our annual fundraiser!
