Janie Stark Elementary Parent Newsletter
January 16, 2022
Dear Stallion Families,
Thank you for working with us this week as our staff and students were impacted by positive COVID cases. It truly takes a partnership during difficult times to maintain the health and safety of our community.
Please continue to stay in touch with us regarding positive COVID cases in your home. Please also know that we are taking extra steps at school to clean, disinfect, and mitigate the spread of COVID on campus.
Together WE CAN work together to get through this recent surge and retun to a sense of normalcy at Stark!
To the BEST of days,
Mrs. Putman

We invite all students to decorate and wear a t-shirt representing the number 100 by gluing, drawing, or sticking 100 objects to the t-shirt (this will need to be done at home if your child chooses to participate). OR Students may dress like they are 100 years old!
