IMPACT AID CARDS
Please return the Impact Aid cards that were distributed last week. Entering October 21st on the date line will bring additional funding to our school.  We will be awarding 30 minutes of volunteer time for each family's returned cards. Our front office ladies are available to assist with any questions: Leslie.Rosch@Sigsbee.org or Lynn.Roberts@Sigsbee.org

PURPLE PINKIE TOTALS
The staff and students at Sigsbee Charter raised $455.00 in our efforts with the Rotary to eradicate polio across the globe.  Because Melinda and Bill Gates match each dollar with two more dollars, our total contribution was $1365.  This means we supported the vaccination of 6825 people.  Great job Sailfish!  We raised more money during our drive than any other school in Key West!



K-5 COSTUME PARADE
NOVEMBER 1
2:15-2:45 PM
Please note that our Annual Costume Parade is taking place on Friday afternoon, the day AFTER Halloween.  This is an annual event that allows our elementary students to proudly display their costumes.  The parade starts around the front circle area where we conduct morning carline. The parade will start promptly at 2:15 PM. You are welcome to stop by (and certainly dress up if you like) to join us in some old fashioned fun! Please make sure to stand behind the seated classes (around the perimeter) so we have a safe and clear parade route and bring your cameras!  

If you wish to take your child home after the parade, please be sure to sign out with the classroom teacher. The parade should be over around 2:45 PM. 

We thank you in advance for your support in helping your child follow the rules about costumes. Teachers will send information about specific costume guidelines for each grade level.  General guidelines are listed below.  Please look for specific directions from your child's teachers about when they are allowed to wear costumes.

 COSTUME GUIDELINES
  • Costumes are not allowed to have any  dangerous objects (i.e. toy swords, toy guns, chains, skates, or spray cans) . Please leave all accessories at home.
  • Students should be able to manipulate their own costumes so that they can use the bathroom.
  • Please make sure young children in costume before the parade, are able to sit and learn without distraction.
  • Costumes should not be too scary (so that our younger students are not frightened). No blood or gore.  No masks or costumes that cover the head.
  • Costumes should be appropriate length (not too short, too tight, or see-through).
  • Shoes must be safe (no slippers or high heels) 
  • Face masks, hoods or anything that covers the face cannot be worn.
  • Please leave the candy at home.
  • Students who do not wish to participate are welcome to watch the parade.
  • If a child does not meet the guidelines, he/she will be asked to remove the costume.  All candy will be returned.

SIGSBEE SCOOP Respect, Responsibility, Resilience January 16- January 22, 2017 WEEK AT A GLANCE: Monday January 16: Holiday: No School Tuesday, January 17: Ecology Club (3:15-4:15 PM) Wednesday, January 18: Enrichment- Early Out Thursday, January 19: SCS Board Meeting (4:00- 5:00 PM) Friday, January 20: Sunday, January 22: 8th grade car wash at VFW (10:00 AM -3:00 PM) A MEMORABLE EVENT AT SIGSBEE CHARTER SCHOOL Because of our transient student body and community, teachers at Sigsbee do not typically get to celebrate their students' elementary careers like most schools.  Many students move away within three years of arriving at Sigsbee. This leaves teachers thinking about former students and wondering how they are doing, where they have landed and what paths they have taken.   This week, it was our distinct pleasure to host the retirement ceremony of a former Sigsbee kindergarten student, Commander Greg Wilson.  Mr. Wilson was a student of Sig...
