Mrs. Moore's 4th grade class has been working on their final unit project for CKLA. Students created their own picture books based on a personal narrative story. They got to share their story in partnerships and interview each other with interview questions that they planned. The picture books are now in the classroom library for everyone to be able to read!

School Carnival this Thursday, Sept. 11th.
Join us for some fun at the Harvest Park grounds Monday from 5-7 PM. Police and Fire are going all out this time! We will have the public safety personnel and their vehicles to allow your children to climb through with someone to answer their questions. Kids will get a chance to spray the fire hoses with a firefighter buddy, and watch them demonstrate how they might extricate someone from a car…with a real car. Nyx our canine officer and her handler Officer Hatch will share Nyx's crazy skills including someone dressed up to receive her "attention". And to top it all off, a free hot dog dinner is included so you don't have to cook at home! Come join us for good times while we sneak knowledge into your children through fun.

OH…and don't forget the dunk tank!

This week we celebrated a truly special teacher—Mrs. Porter—who is retiring after 30 years in education. Known for her love of sloths, we honored her with a Rainforest Relay, complete with her third grade teammates dressed in blow up animal costumes and office staff dressed in sloth costumes! Mrs. Porter has inspired countless students and mentored teachers across several schools as an instructional coach and facilitator. She is deeply loved and will be greatly missed, but we’re excited for her next adventure. Cindy, thank you for your patience, dedication, and the wisdom you’ve shared with us all. Remember: “Be patient, great things take time.” Happy retirement! #ThankYouMrsPorter #SlothWisdom #HappyRetirement @maple_ridge_elementary_PTA
