***Teachers remember to call ahead if you are sending students to the 200 building.  Make sure students know to come to the door nearest the office and not the door nearest the gym.

***If any parents ask about the fire alarm, please inform them it was due to faulty equipment in the kitchen area.  We are already working on fixing the problem.

Don't forget to follow Speas on Twitter to get updates and reminders.  

Gentle Reminders:
* When planning and executing field trip plans, please keep in mind that it is against policy to require parents to accompany students on trips.  We cannot exclude students from trips for behavior, or inability to pay.


*During the winter months please pay very close attention to the temperature before taking students outside to play.  The guideline we use is that outside play is safe when the temperature is between 32-90 degrees.  It is also important to consider the wind chill factor.   You can peruse the following websites for ideas:

Teachers have also been known to use youtube dance videos with students.  Please remember to always preview any web-based activities.
