Bus Route Update – Bushland Route Although the ban has been lifted, we are continuing to take a safety-first approach. Due to the high volume of traffic in the area and the potential for lingering smoke, the Bushland bus route will not run tomorrow. Families on this route will have an excused absence if their child is unable to attend school. We will continue to monitor conditions closely and provide updates as needed. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

Congratulations to our final Treasure Chest winner - C.C. It’s not too late to complete your Treasure Map, earn your prizes, and help your child’s teacher earn a shopping spree to purchase books and supplies for the classroom! When 60% of the classroom students register and invite 10+ friends and family members, that teacher will earn a $100 shopping spree. 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. Visit  https://app.booksarefun.com/ChanningPS79018  to participate!

WOW! In the past 24 hours, an overwhelming number of families have rallied behind our effort, sending hundreds of invitations to friends and family. We're so excited to see that expanding home libraries and supporting our teachers is as important to you as it is to us.

There's still time to get in on the fun. That's right: If you didn't have a chance to register and send 10 or more invitations to family and friends, you still have time. Click the link above, don't miss out.

Complete your Treasure Map tonight and your student(s) will be entered to win a Treasure Chest. Drawings start tomorrow!

Thank you!

Old Fashioned Christmas
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.

Click Here: https://app.booksarefun.com/ChanningPS79018

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).
Need help registering? Watch this short step by step video: Family Explainer Video
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.
