-Moose is Loose Recap
A huge thank you to all of you who donated your time, energy, money, toys, cakes, tents, tables, gift cards and Broncos tickets to host a great community event! The turnout was fabulous, the weather held, we raised over $10,000 for teacher grants and most importantly, a good time was had by all, especially Brayden Clark and Jaymee Peterson who won the Broncos tickets!

100-Mile
Club
The
morning running club attendance continues to amaze me. The track is
packed with joggers.
Thanks
to Southmoor parent, Melissa Trujillo, we had a great “golden ticket” event,
last Friday.
Students
who were lucky enough to pick a yellow popsicle stick, received a special
prize.
There
definitely was a noticeable faster pace of movement, in order to get more
opportunities to pick a stick.
Thriller
Time
All
students have begun learning the Thriller dance. We will perform it at
the conclusion of the Halloween parade, on the blacktop.
It’s
going to be awesome! Hope to see you on the 31st.
Appropriate
Footwear
As
winter approaches, please send your child to school every day
with shoes appropriate for safe and efficient movement on the playground and in
the gym.
It
is common for students who incur injuries to be wearing inappropriate footwear,
especially snow boots.
Live
Well, Joseph Bazzanella
-Dine Outs To Support Southmoor
Take a night off from cooking
and help your school as well! Mention Southmoor Elementary when you
