December 20th- The kindergarten classes are leading the Advent Chapel that morning. Each child will play an important role in leading worship. You are invited to come to chapel and watch at 8:25 am. Our lines or parts were sent home. Please practice with your child (if they have a line). We will also practice at school. We are very excited to share the message of Jesus birth! Students may wear their "Christmas best" on that day if they would like, or their traditional uniform.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

Have a very Merry Christmas!

A Note from Mrs. Kaber:

Christmas Walk: 

Every year the kindergarten class goes on a walk to the Zehnle house directly behind my classroom. Both teachers and assistants walk with the students and stop in front of the house. The kids bring a clipboard and a graph. They graph wreaths, presents, the nativity scene, etc for a math activity. Mr. Zehnle is very kind and opens up his Santa's Workshop garage for the students to see. This is one of our favorite kindergarten traditions. He has loved doing this since his granddaughter Sophie was in my Pre-K class when I first started CCLS. They are members of Webster Gardens. We have planned to go on Thursday, December 7th.  

Book Exchange: 








December 20th- The kindergarten classes are leading the Advent Chapel that morning. Each child will play an important role in leading worship. You are invited to come to chapel and watch at 8:25 am. Our lines or parts were sent home. Please practice with your child (if they have a line). We will also practice at school. We are very excited to share the message of Jesus birth! Students may wear their "Christmas best" on that day if they would like, or their traditional uniform.

Adopt a Cow- Our class "adopted" a cow from the Ozarks named Arlene. Arlene is staying at the Farm at the College of the Ozarks, but we will get updates on her growth throughout the year. Our class will have a stuffed animal cow named Arlene that will get to travel to your home this year! She comes in a Dairy Cow bag and has a journal. When you get her, make sure you take good care of her, and have your student write in the journal about the fun they had with her. You may add pictures as well as the fun you had. She also LOVES to take rides in a washing machine too :) Have fun!

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

In Him,

We sent home forms in your child's folder the first week of school. You can find extra forms on the wall next to the front desk window. I can also send home a form if you are unable to grab it when you walk in. 
Service Projects are a wonderful way for families to work together and share what it means to give back. You can rake a neighbor's yard, bake cookies for firefighters and deliver cards to elderly in a nursing home. Please talk with your student about service, why we do things for others, and how your student felt after serving. You may write the response for your student but have them tell you what they want to write.   Thanks for showing God's love in your community!

October 27th- No School- PTC

A Note from Mrs. Kaber: 

Wheel-a-Thon- Thanks to everyone for participating in the Uganda Fundraising Project!! Our goal was to raise $500 for both classes in order to sponsor 2 students. We went above and beyond and raised over $1600! I am so blessed to be a part of a community that serves and cares for others! 

October 10th- October 10th is the last day of the quarter. Just a reminder that service projects and Church Attendance Forms are due that day. We sent home forms in your child's folder the first week of school. You can find extra forms on the wall next to the front desk window. I can also send home a form if you are unable to grab it when you walk in. 
Service Projects are a wonderful way for families to work together and share what it means to give back. You can rake a neighbor's yard, bake cookies for firefighters and deliver cards to elderly in a nursing home. Plese talk with your student about service, why we do things for others, and how your student felt after serving. You may write the response for your student but have them tell you what they want to write.   Thanks for showing God's love in your community!

Parent Teacher Conferences- I will be sending out a conference sign-up sheet soon. I will be offering time slots on Thursday afternoon/evening as well as Friday morning. Please coordinate and only select one spot per student. Thank you!

Tardies- Just a reminder that the tardy bell rings at 8:10 am. I have noticed a large number of students coming in late every day. We have morning work, lunch count/attendance, and getting students ready for Jesus time/STEAM Cart, Chapel families or other morning activities before 8:15 am. I understand occasional traffic issues, but please plan accordingly. Thank you for respecting everyone's time. 


If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

In Him,

Mrs. Kaber
