Sargeant Families Blog - December 28th

Hope everyone is having a restful break and finding time to spend with family and friends.  

Music Update
As some of you have heard, the band director at Eich Middle School resigned suddenly due to health concerns.  Mrs. Aldridge, our music teacher, was called on to consider taking over the program.  She has spent the majority of her career teaching middle school band and this was something she couldn't pass up.  She will be greatly missed at Sargeant, but we know she will do great things at Eich, and our students will one day get to be a part of the program in middle school.  With Mrs. Aldridge's and the district's guidance, we were able to find a replacement to start in January.  The two will be working together to make sure the transition is a smooth one. We will work on a plan for Mrs. Aldridge to come say goodbye to the students.  

Note from Mrs. Rainey 

There are no words to express the depth of gratitude that I have for the outpouring of support you have shown Néstor Boscán's family during the most difficult time of their lives. They are extremely appreciative. You have amazed the family with your GoFundMe donations, with meals, with hugs and with your loving words. Not a single gesture has gone unnoticed. This school, and this community, are an example of what it means to be connected and to be kind to every person every day. Néstor's family will never forget you all. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

-Mrs. Rainey

Toy Drive

Thank you, Sargeant families, for your incredible donations to the CHiP Toy Drive. Your donations are given to children displaced from their homes this holiday season, and the CHP officers were overwhelmed by your generosity, when they picked up the toys on Monday morning. Thank you for living out loud our school motto: Be Connected, Be Kind!

Continue enjoying your winter break.  Take time to snuggle up and read a book with your child.  At some point next week Mrs. Peck will be reading a book to the students and posting it on Facebook for all to enjoy.  If you are not following us on Facebook please start!
