Last Week for Toys for Tots

This is the last week for Toys for Tots! My Advisory has done an awesome job. So far, they have donated 42 toys and over $40. The students voted today to have Hot Chocolate Days for the remainder of the toy drive. For a 50 cent donation to Toys for Tots each day, they will get a hot chocolate to drink in Advisory class. Keep up the great work Advisory!

Thanksgiving

Dear Parents,

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect and be thankful for what you have. One of the things that I am most thankful for is my job. I get to go to work every day and work with students that make me laugh and smile. I get to watch learning happen and be a part of new understanding. I love my job and I love working with your children. I am truly thankful to be teaching in Sparta. Enjoy your time with family and friends this Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Mr. Tidey
