KINDNESS WEEK
January 13th - 17th
Thank you for supporting your students and our school during Kindness Week
last week!
We kicked off the week on Monday with a fun assembly and a magician.
Every class made a poster with their Classroom Kindness Theme
to display in the hall.
Students wrote Kindness Notes for other students during the week.
They had as much fun writing them as they did receiving them!
SODA TABS - We collected a grand total of 89 pounds, 4.15 ounces. Wow!
Proceeds from these go to benefit Ronald McDonald House.
Third Grade won the award for bringing in the most tabs.
Kindergarten was so close behind that the PTA is going to help
both grades with a reward,
to be determined by grade level and announced soon. 😀
Huge thanks go out to our PTA!
We were also impressed with how many students worked on kindness at home
and turned in Kindness Bingo Cards.
Let's Keep up the Kindness!
NO SCHOOL Monday, January 20th - Martin Luther King Jr. Day
NO SCHOOL Tuesday, January 21st - Grade Transmittal Day
See you back on Wednesday, January 22nd.
Enjoy your long weekend!

We hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday season.

FOOD DRIVE
Thank you for helping to make our Food Drive a big success! We had food lining many of the hallways, and filled almost 4 big barrels for the Utah Food Bank.
Our Student Leadership Team, and all those students who applied for the SLT,
helped to gather the food and get it ready for pick-up.
They worked hard, and got it done quickly!
They were SO good, in fact, that we had a special visitor show up!
JSD SUPERCAST
We hope you'll check out this week's JSD Supercast with Superintendent Godfrey!
Thanks, Mrs. Crane and Mrs. Price! Way to represent Rosamond. 😁
PATRIOTIC ART
In case you missed it, the artwork third graders created that was on display during their program, has been moved to bulletin boards around the building. THANK YOU to Mrs. Dansie, our amazing Art Teacher, who helped students with their projects, and came last Thursday night to share information about the Beverley Taylor Sorenson (BTS) Arts in Schools Program.
ROSAMOND HAPPENINGS
We had a LOT going on at Rosamond this past week!
LIBRARY
In the library over the past two weeks, Mrs. Bernier and Mrs. Glick read stories and taught lessons to celebrate Remembrance Day, and to honor our U.S. Military members and veterans. (Ask Mrs. Bernier to recite "Flanders Fields" from memory. It's impressive!)
We had an ARTS assembly on Tuesday, November 19th. "Sounding Brass" came to play for us.
On Thursday, November 21st, our 5th Graders graduated from D.A.R.E. Officer Hurst and Detective Ashley spent several weeks coming in to teach our 5th graders about responsible decision making, and other great life skills. Congratulations to our fifth graders!
Our 3rd Graders put on a patriotic program for their fellow students on Wednesday, November 20th, and repeated this fabulous production for parents on Thursday evening, November 21st. We were SO impressed with the incredible job they did! Way to go, 3rd Grade!
The turnout for this program was incredible! Thank you to our parents and community members for their support, and thank you to our teachers for all their hard work in overseeing the whole thing. We were especially honored to have our JSD Board President, Tracy Miller, in attendance. Thank you, Mrs. Miller!
Please stop in before Winter Break to see our Wall of Honor, which 3rd grade put together to go along with their program. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this!
Also - check out the post on the JSD Website!
We are so thankful for our students, faculty and staff, and for our amazing community. Thank you!
