ideas   concerning   the   constitution   and   freedom.   Some   wonderful   artwork   was   submitted!     Contest  
winners  were  recently  presented  with  their  awards.    Thank  you  students  for  your  creativity!

THANK  YOU,  PTO!  -­‐  Teacher  Appreciation,  sponsored  yearly  by  the  PTO,  was  a  wonderful  experience  for  
teachers  and  staff  at  Thayne  Elementary.    We  would  like  to  thank  the  PTO,  all  the  volunteers  who  
brought  the  wonderful  food,  and  Amy  Simpson  for  directing  this  event.    The  soups,  casseroles,  fruits  and  
vegetables,  and  other  special  activities  were  terrific!!!    We  are  very  thankful  for  your  thoughtfulness,  
kindness,  and  support!    Thayne  Elementary  parents  are  the  best!!!  
 
SAFETY  ISSUE  –  for  student  safety,  please  do  not  wear  flip-­‐flops  and  open-­‐toe  shoes  to  school.    Sturdy  
shoes  help  keep  children  safe  at  recess,  PE,  and  other  activities.  
 
PTO  and  VOLUNTEERS!    Words  cannot  express  the  gratitude  that  all  Thayne  Elementary  staff  and  
students  have  for  the  many  hours  of  service  given  throughout  the  past  year!    Thank  you  for  volunteering  
in  the  classroom,  Morning  with  Mom  and  Doughnuts  with  Dad,  Science  Fair,  Literacy  Week,  Teacher  
Appreciation,  etc.    Our  records  show  over  2000  hours  of  service  this  year  so  far.    Many,  many  thanks!
