Good afternoon, Eaton families! Here is your Monday Minute for the week of February 9th.

1. We have our 1st grade program on Thursday, “How the groundhog stole Valentines Day” at Central United Methodist at 6:30.

2. Your classroom teacher should be reaching out regarding rescheduled conferences that we missed last week due to weather.

3. As Valentine’s Day nears, we are asking for help from you on a certain matter. We request that there be no flower or balloon deliveries to the school for Valentine’s Day. Our school has a large population of students and deliveries can be overwhelming to us. Please enjoy those special deliveries at home with your child. I guarantee they love those too!

4. Candy Grams are being sold this week for 25 cents. We will end sales on Wednesday so they can be delivered by Friday.

5. Our Student Council is working on a project for Cold Hands and Warm Hearts. They are asking for donations of individual snacks to donate to this organization.

6. There is no school on Monday due to Presidents Day.

7. Mark your calendar for Bingo for Books. This is a free event to play bingo and win books. It will be February 20th from 5:00-7:00. Additionally, the book fair will be open for shopping during that time.

8. School Resource Officer appreciation is technically on Sunday, February 15th but we will celebrate on Friday. If you see Officer Slattery on Friday, make sure to show her some love!

9. We also want to shoutout our 4th grade math teams as they compete this weekend at the Perennial Math Tournament in Chattanooga.

10. Parent Tip: We have posted a link with a President’s Day puzzle pack you can do at home with your students. https://aptg.co/PvlBSx

Have a great week!

✨ What an incredible day at “Stand Up with Ms. Stephanie”! ✨ Our school community showed up with so much love, strength, and unity as we rallied around Ms. Stephanie in her courageous battle with cancer. Her resilience inspires us and Wednesday was a beautiful reminder of what it looks like when we stand together.

A huge congratulations to Mrs. Dorton’s class for earning the Ice Cream Sundae Party! 🍨🎉 Their energy and enthusiasm helped make the day even more special.

Thank you to every student, teacher, and family who participated. Your support truly makes a difference. 💛
