Dear Stallion Families,
I hope you and your families had a wonderful and relaxing week! We are looking forward to continuing the holiday season with a few of our dress-up days and traditions we've established in the past. As always, participation is optional. Please do not feel like you need to participate.
The holidays are a great time to celebrate loved ones with laughter and joy. We look forward to a joyful holiday season with your children!
To the BEST of days,
Mrs. Putman

December Fun at Stark!
For the month of December the staff will be enjoying holiday “theme” days to bring excitement and fun into the classroom. We invite the students to participate in a few of the fun days as well! This is, of course, optional. Please do not feel like your child has to participate. These are only meant to be an exciting way to countdown the days until the winter break:
Wednesday, December 1- Wear a college shirt and a holiday hat or headband!
Tuesday, December 7 - Wear a reindeer shirt or reindeer antlers!
Thursday, December 9 - Wear a Santa hat or headband!
Monday, December 13 - Dress like the 1980’s for the 80th day of school
Monday, December 20 - Polar Express Day; wear pajamas
Tuesday, December 21 - Wear a holiday shirt for class parties
Again, participation is completely optional. My goal is always to create an exciting learning environment where kids want to come to school! When students have fun learning, the likelihood of high academic achievement increases.

Holiday Parties
From district communication:
Beginning Monday, November 29, 2021, visitors will be allowed to attend in-person events outside of the normal school day meaning visitors may attend events held after the school day and/or on the weekends at our elementary campuses.
In order to minimize exposure to our younger students, elementary school visitors are not allowed to attend in-person events or eat lunch with their children during the school day. However, visitors are welcome to attend any outside events, where COVID-19 does not spread as easily, regardless of time, if deemed appropriate by the campus principal.
