12/6/21-12/12/21

 

Thank you for a wonderful and happy return from our Fall Break.  Teachers spent the week welcoming students back with open arms and lots of smiles.  We reconnected in meaningful ways and got underway with new learning and fun activities.  




Welcome!

We are excited to welcome our new Mental Health Specialist, Hillary Blan.  Hillary has a Master’s Degree in Social Work and has experience working with children and families.  Her first day at Sargeant is Monday, 12/6 and she is excited to begin her journey as a Bulldog.  She will spend the next few weeks getting to know all of the teachers and students.  We are lucky to have her!  Keep your eyes out for more information from Hillary herself. 





Our IB Learner Attributes mural has been finished!!

It is in the MPR and we are so grateful to our painter, Raphael Leiblum, for his great work.  THANK YOU to our amazing PTC for funding this project (and all of you for your fundraising efforts).  Our students and staff love it. We are so proud!



December: Balanced

Students who are BALANCED are healthy and are aware that eating properly and exercising are important in their lives.  They understand that it is important to have a balance between the physical and mental aspects of their bodies.  


How can families help at home?

  • Role model this attribute by:

    • Playing outside 

    • Going to the park 

    • Making  dinner together 

    • Reading a book 

    • Playing  a board game 

    • Going on a walk 

    • Doing chores as a family


Kindness Club

Sargeant's Kindness Club is proud to support our community, and this year we have connected with the senior residents at The Terraces of Roseville. We have showered them with cards for Halloween and Thanksgiving, and for the holiday season, we are making homemade lap blankets. You can help support our acts of kindness by purchasing a Kindness bracelet. These bracelets are adjustable, waterproof, have our school colors, and help unite us in one school and one community. Plus, they make great holiday gifts! Bracelets are available for purchase in the school office. Thank you for continuing to make Sargeant great!









Early Release Day tomorrow

This is a reminder that school gets out early on Mondays!  Dismissal tomorrow is 2:00 pm. 


Chips for Kids Toy Drive

We are collecting new, unwrapped toys to donate to children in need.  You can find a donation bin in our front office.  


Safety

Please continue to drive safely in and around our school.  It is important to watch for pedestrians and abide by all speed limits and laws.  We appreciate your cooperation.
