Dear Channing Families,
We are excited to celebrate our Old-Fashioned Christmas program tomorrow evening! We want to let you know that school buses will run at their regular dismissal time only. We will not be offering bus transportation for students returning for the program.
Students will ride the bus home after school and may return with their families for the festivities beginning at 4:30 PM.
Thank you for helping us ensure a smooth and safe event. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow tonight!

Congratulations to our final Treasure Chest winner - C.C.

If ALL the 90% of the classroom students invite 10+ friends and family members, the teacher will earn a $200 shopping spree. Plus you can still be entered to win a Disney trip.

Register for the Book Blast Tonight!
Dear Channing Public School Families,
We're teaming up with Books Are Fun and their Book Blast program to help grow our students' home libraries and encourage more reading time over screen time. For more than 30 years, Books Are Fun has helped promote literacy by getting great books into the hands of students.
Today, our students learned about the Book Blast Program and the importance of having their own books at home. Tonight, we are asking you to take 7 minutes to support our Student Home Library initiative.

Here are the steps:
Click the link above.
Register your student(s).
Send invitations to at least 10 friends or family members to support our students (don't worry, all the information you provide is secure and never shared with anyone).

Win a trip to Disney!
Our school has been selected for an incredible opportunity! For every supporter who clicks your student's contribution link during Book Blast, you'll earn one entry for a chance to win a trip to Disney! For example, if five different people click the link, your family gets five entries into the drawing!
*Pro Tip: After sending invitations, follow up with a phone call to make sure they received the message.
Why I love this program:
It's guaranteed to put new, age-appropriate books into the hands of every student!
100% of all contributions go toward new books and classroom supplies.
The book list is fantastic! It's attached, check it out.
It will take you less than 10 minutes and there is NO financial requirement from you.
More books in your homes equals more pages being read! That's the goal. We're hoping for 100% participation.
Thank you for helping our students have more books.

Important Reminder for Parents!
There seems to be a mix-up with the class photo schedule on ClassDojo. Just a heads-up that class photos are actually being held during the school day tomorrow, not at 7:00 PM.
Please make sure your child's photo envelope is completed and returned tomorrow, even if you are not purchasing a photo package.
Thanks for your attention to this, and we can't wait to see those smiling faces!
