Caroline Family - Please mark your calendars with the following adjustments:
*Friday, February 6: Now a half day for students and a full day for staff
*Monday, February 16 (Presidents Day): Now a full day for students and staff
*Monday, March 16: Now a full day for students and staff
These adjustments were made due to the recent inclement weather days used, and in an effort to avoid extending the school year. With these changes, and if no further inclement weather days are used, the last day of school for students remains June 17, 2025 (half-day).

Reminder: Pep Rally on Thursday, 2/5

1. Sign Up at http://www2.heart.org/goto/federalsburgES and download the free “AHA Schools” app.
2. Raise funds to help kids with special hearts and start earning thank-you gifts.
3. Complete Finn’s Mission: Learn Hands-Only CPR, earn your lifesavers cape and be entered to win two Super Bowl tickets!
Now is the time to join our team! We need your help to reach our goal!
If 50% of our families sign up our school will earn a $500 gift certificate for physical activity and recess equipment to support the health of our school community. I can’t wait to see our school create a community of lifesavers this year.
Thank you,
Mrs. Brohawn
