PHOTO: There Are This Many Snowmen Left

Thank you to everyone who has helped so far with the snowman gifts this year at King!

If you are still hoping to help this year, the number of snowmen left shows below. If you can, stop by school and take one off the bulletin board close to the office. If you can't stop by, please call the office. We'll help to get a snowman to you.

QUESTIONS? Please don't hesitate to call us at school (994-1940) or email.

Snowman Gift Giving - Gifts Due 12/14


Once again King School will help children in our community by purchasing small holiday gifts. Look for "snowmen" on the bulletin board across from the office with a $25 gift written on the back.

Please select a snowman, purchase the gift, attach the snowman to the unwrapped gift, and bring it to school between now and December 14.


We have many snowflakes this year so more children at King can participate by helping other local children. Thanks in advance for your generosity. Questions? Please contact Community Action Chairperson Rachel Sabb at rsabb at hotmail.com or Mr. Karr at karrk at aaps.k12.mi.us.

Weather and SNOWMAN HOLIDAY GIVING UPDATE

Given the weather forecast for tonight and its potential impact on school being open tomorrow, it is my hope that snowman gifts will be turned in to the school office today (Thursday) by 4:30 PM.

If this is not possible, we'll work it out one way or another . . . email me or call school today and I will make a plan with you about what to do. :-)

On behalf of the King PTO and the King staff, I am deeply thankful for the generosity our community shows in helping others. The snowman gifts are an excellent example of how King School has been a community leader in this area. I personally know our example is recognized by the Ann Arbor Educational Foundation and members of other area PTOs have discussed how to follow our example. Nice job!

As for the weather and school closings, any decisions about school cancellations will be posted on the school website. I'll do my best to send a community email quickly also. In addition, the information I've shared previously about school closings should still be helpful.


Sincerely,
Kevin
