Please don't forget to sign up for SEP's! This will be the last SEP of the year. They will be held tomorrow night (Wednesday, March 16th). The link for sign ups are below. It's important to sign up for a time and not just to show up, so you are guaranteed a time to sit with the teacher.

Carrie Norton was nominated and voted by her colleagues to be 2015-2016 Teacher of the Year. She teaches 4th grade and has been at Goshen Elementary for 8 years. When asked why Mrs. Norton received this honor, Mrs. DeGraffenried, our pricipal stated:
This Month's Students of the Month were picked for displaying teamwork. Thanks kids for being a team player in your class!
Goshen students participated in the Read Across America read-a-thon on Wednesday. All classes took an hour out of their day to give the kids some time to read. Some classes came in their comfy pajama's, some brought their pillows and blankets to relax on and some brought treats to enjoy while they read.
In celebration of Dr. Seuss' birthday, Goshen students dressed up as their favorite Dr. Seuss character. We had lots of Cat in the Hats, some Things One and Twos and even some Cindy Lou Whos. Mrs. DeGraffenried even came to school as the Cat in the Hat. Some of our classes made Cat in the Hat masks, made their own Sneetch, and played pin the heart on The Grinch. Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! Thank you for all of the imagination building stories you gave us!
Goshen's annual Education Fair is on the horizon. This is a great opportunity for our students to learn about different topics that interest them. There are four categories in which they can enter; math, Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies. Students may choose as many of the categories as they would like to participate in. The Language Arts enteries are due on March 21st, and all other enteries are due on the day of the Education Fair, March 30.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) will be Dr. Seuss Day here at Goshen School. Your child can dress up as their favorite Dr. Seuss Character for the day. We will also be having a read-a-thon to support Read Across America.
