Principal's Message

Dear Thacher Families,

A quick reminder and plea to make sure you're following the stop signs as well as the traffic pattern in the parking lot and streets around the school. A few near misses due to cars not stopping at the 4-way stop signs have been reported to us recently. We know it can be frustrating and feel like the line is taking forever, but we have timed the car line and it takes less then 10 minutes to make it from the end of the line to the time you pull out to leave. Please help us make sure everyone gets home safely.

With the short week next week, we will not send out a newsletter. The next edition will be sent December 6th. Don't forget, there is no school Wednesday - Friday next week.

We hope you have a wonderful, albeit short, break and enjoy the time with your family!

Frank Rich, Principal

Spirit Days

This Week in Physical Education

Hello Thacher Elementary School families,

We are excited to introduce "Turkey Stations" as part of our fun and festive approach to active learning. During these stations, students will participate in a variety of themed activities that encourage physical movement and teamwork while celebrating the spirit of Thanksgiving. Each station focuses on different skills, such as agility, balance, throwing, catching and much more all through games and exercises inspired by the holiday. For example, students might "gobble turkey trot” around the gym. Students will also be participating in things like tossing turkeys through a hoop, throwing pumpkins into baskets, balancing on the mayflower, stacking pumpkin pies, knocking down gobbling turkeys and much much more. These stations not only provide a great way for students to stay active, but they also foster creativity and cooperation in a lighthearted, seasonal environment.

If you ever have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out at anytime!

Mr. Ryan Henry
