🎄✨ Holiday Dress-Up Day Update! ✨🎄


City Park families, we have some breaking, exciting news to share!

Our amazing PAWS team has decided to add PAWjamas as an official dress-up option for next Friday, December 19! 🐾🎉

Why the change? Our fourth graders have been hard at work writing persuasive letters to Ms. Rhyne as practice for their upcoming ELA Unit 3 Project-Based Inquiry Task with Savvas — and let’s just say their reasons were so purrrrrsuasive that Ms. Rhyne simply couldn’t resist! 😺💛

So whether your child wants to dress festive, cozy, or in their favorite PAWjamas, we can’t wait to see all the holiday spirit across campus next Friday!

Stay tuned for the flyer below, and get ready for a fun and spirited day at City Park! 🎁❄️🐾

We are so thankful for the generosity shown to our families this holiday season ❤️

Through our Helping Hands Ending Hunger program, each participating family is receiving a crock pot, made possible by our Helping Hands program and generous donations from the American Heart Association. These crock pots were thoughtfully chosen to provide families with an easy, accessible kitchen appliance to help make meal preparation simpler.

In addition, families have received fresh and frozen produce over the past several weeks to support healthy meals at home.

We are incredibly grateful for the continued support of these outreach programs and the difference they make for our families, especially during the holiday season. 🧡

Our fourth graders wrote some very persuasive letters, and it paid off! Today, our principals visited fourth grade classrooms to share the exciting news that Pajama Day is happening—all thanks to their strong writing, thoughtful arguments, and great effort. We are so proud of our students for using their voices and showing the power of persuasive writing. Way to go, fourth grade! 👏
