Spelling Bee

This year’s spelling bee has been moved to Friday, March 26th at 1 p.m. Please note that we are trying to limit the number of visitors in the school, so we will live stream and record the spelling bee so that you can watch your child participate from the comfort of your home.  Another change this year is that we will have the 6^th and 7^th grade go first, then the 1^st and 2^nd graders, and finally, the 3-5^th grade students will wrap up the event.

Kindergarten/Preschool round up

The dates for kindergarten/preschool round up have changed. The new dates are March 25, April 7^th, 12^th. and 14^th.  If you haven’t already signed up please use the link.

Lutheran School’s Week

Lutheran School’s Week has been moved.  We will now celebrate God’s blessing of Lutheran schools the week of March 22.

Classroom Skits

Classroom skits will be recorded and shared once all classrooms are back in-person and have had time to prepare thoroughly.

Wolf Ridge

This past week an email was sent to all 4^th and 5^th grade families about a potential Wolf Ridge trip in the fall of 2021.  If you are planning to sell Kwik Trip Car Wash cards, please let Mrs. Van Houten know by the end of the day Monday, March 15.

Trinity Care

Please continue to register your child/ren for Trinity Care up to 2 weeks in advance. Additional directions are given in the Google spreadsheet.

Cold and Flu Season

Many of you may be wondering what to do when your child develops new symptoms that most likely is related to a typical cold but are also possible symptoms related to COVID-19. According to the most current guidelines, if your child has one of the following symptoms, then they need to remain home for at least 10 days unless a health care provider clears your child to return to school:

• a fever of 100.4 or greater
  • new or worsening cough
  • difficulty breathing
  • a new loss of taste and smell

Additionally, all siblings must also remain home for 10 days or until a health care provider gives the ok. For more information or questions on whether you should send your child to school, please contact Susan Van Houten or your child’s teacher.
