Dear Sullivan Families,

It is hard to believe we just closed out the last school day of 2023! Our students have worked hard since Thanksgiving break, and we were excited to close out this portion of the school year with our winter parties.

We have a few parent and family engagement events coming up in January, so mark your calendars! We will host a Ross/Sullivan parent coffee before the PTO meeting on January 23rd and we will host a Family Literacy Night on January 30th at Sullivan. More details about each event will sent home after winter break.

Enjoy the next few weeks and take advantage of this time to connect with family and friends. We look forward to welcoming your kids back on January 9th!

Sincerely,

Traci Meziere

Winter Weather Reminders

As a reminder, we go outside for recess for 30 minutes daily unless it is below 10 degrees with windchill. Please make sure your child comes to school with a hat, gloves, and a warm jacket at a minimum. Boots and snow pants are necessary if students want to leave the blacktop area and play in the snow.

Sullivan Snapshots

Our Sullivan Chorus put on two amazing performances last week under the direction of Mrs. Karen Luehr and Chorus Assistant Mrs. Caffero. They wowed the crowd at the Wolves Game on December 16th, and joined the Sullivan Band under the direction of Mr. Anderson for a winter concert on the 18th. We are so proud of both our chorus and band students for their hard work and dedication to our vocal and instrumental music programs. Thank you to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Luehr, and Mrs. Caffero for making music with our kids!

Our Sullivan Ambassadors joined Mrs. Clausen's Early Childhood class for winter-themed station activities today. Our students enjoyed being leaders and playing games with our littlest Panthers.

Winter Party Fun

Thank you to our room parents for planning our amazing winter parties! Each classroom enjoyed games, crafts, and music this afternoon. It was an amazing way for the Sullivan community to come together and celebrate the end of the first half of the school year.
