Verse of the day: Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall. Psalm 55:22
Family Club Back to School Party - Thank you Family Club for providing such a special evening of fellowship last night for all our families. Many of you came and enjoyed a meal and great conversation. Applewood is very much a 'family', and it's always a great time when we can spend time with one another.
First day of school - All parents are welcome and encouraged to stay for opening on the first day of school. I would love to fill the room and pray over our students and the upcoming school year. Please have students here by 8:00. Opening will begin at 8:10.
Kickoff - September 1st @ 6:30 in the ROC - We are hoping to change kickoff a bit this year and are looking forward to a great evening of fellowship. We will have kickoff this year in the ROC and we would love to see ALL families in attendance. This is a great opportunity to meet your teachers, meet any new families/students, and see your classrooms. This year Kelley Bergman (curriculum coordinator) plans to have a table set up to check out all solutions manuals for next year. We will also have a table set up for each student to bring in their office supplies for next year and check them in. Please remember to label all supplies such as copy paper, cleaning spray, paper towels, etc. with your last name and 2016. This helped us a great deal when we checked our supply inventory over the summer. Family Club will have a table set up for families to join, buy Scrip cards, and ask any questions. Please remember to bring your check book and insurance cards that evening as well. We look forward to seeing each of you!
School Supply List - Lists have been emailed. If you did not receive yours, please feel free to give us a call. If you do not bring your supplies to kick off, they may be brought the first day of school. Please be sure you do not just drop them off and leave without checking them in.
Parent Jobs - If you have not signed up yet for your parent jobs, please do so soon. All families need to be signed up to fulfill a minimum of 3 points by September 1. If you have not signed up by September 1, your school board representative will contact you and help you get signed up.
Summer Reading Program - If your child participated in the summer reading program, please remind them bring their reading minutes on the first day of school.
Tuition - If you have not paid September's tuition yet, please contact the office and make arrangements with Mrs. Otten to do that immediately.
