Mrs. DiFrederico was the MC for Granite Street's first assembly of the year on Thursday, September 25th. Fourth graders led the school in saying the Pledge of Allegiance. With the changing our school motto, Mrs. Hale and Mrs. DiFrederico retired our bumble bee and presented the new mascot - The Granite Grizzly CARE bear. Our new motto is CARE, and Ms. DeSilva's class shared posters they made about each letter of CARE means - Choose kindness, Act responsibly, Respect everyone, Engage in Learning. Mr. McEwen led the school in singing "This Land is Your Land." Miss Shawna announced the names of students who have had perfect attendance between the first day of school and Friday, September 19th. We had 87 students on the list!!

If your child is interested in learning to play an instrument, Mr. McEwen is offering lessons in the mornings before the start of the regular school day. Instrument rentals are available through the David French Music Company. Information about renting instruments is in the attached flier. Please be aware that the wait list for instruments may mean it will be a few weeks before they are delivered to the school which also delays the starting of lessons. Parents who do decided to rent an instrument need to also order the RED BOOK (Standard of Excellence) along with the instrument of their choosing. You can contact Mr. McEwen with any questions.

Parking lot reminder:
Each morning and afternoon, our parking lot is very busy with buses and family vehicles dropping off and picking up students. To keep our students safe, we ask that everyone always use the cross walk at the front of the building. Students can then safely walk to the playground along the side of the building and fence in the mornings .
We also ask that you park in one of the front spaces if you plan to walk your child into the building. This will allow the line of traffic to continue to move smoothly and safely.
Thank you for your cooperation.

This week, we started our new special lunch initiative. On Monday, we reviewed the lunch room expectations. The two staff members on duty chose up to 5 students each day that follow these expectations. The following day, the students names are announced in the morning. At lunch time, they eat with an adult in a separate space that is a bit quieter and they can engage in socializing with peers in their own grade or ones that are in a grade below them and/or above them. Once they finish eating, they can spend the last few minutes of the lunch time playing a variety of games. The students have enjoyed this and cannot wait for their next chance to be picked.
