Dear Logan Families,
It was wonderful to see so many of you at Curriculum Night last week. It felt like a celebration to have families back in the building. Thank you for joining us! If you were unable to attend, please reach out to your child’s teacher to get any information you might have missed.
There is a lot of information in this week’s letter. Please take some time to read through these notes. In this Weekly Update, I’ve included information about:
Early Release Reminder
The Logan Fun Run
World Flags Project
Blogspot Family Letters
Volunteering at Logan
Become a Lunchroom Supervisor!
Important Upcoming Dates
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Will Wright
Early Release Reminder
Tuesday, September 20, 2022 is an Early Release Day. Students will be dismissed at 1:18pm. All families must ensure that they have a plan for their children at the end of the day tomorrow.
The Logan Fun Run
We’re so excited for our biggest fundraiser of the year! The Fun Run will be held at school on Wednesday, October 12th. We need your help to make this event as successful as possible. We have many opportunities for parents to get involved in the planning, promoting, and participation at the event. Please contact Christina Shinsky if you are interested in volunteering - christinashinsky@gmail.com.
World Flags Project
Diversity is one of the great characteristics of our Logan community.The Logan Flag Project aims to celebrate diversity in a meaningful way. We hang flags in the multipurpose room so that our community can see and learn about other countries at lunch and during school events throughout the year. With new families joining the Logan community on a rolling basis, we want to ensure that EVERYONE IS REPRESENTED. We are asking ALL FAMILIES to complete the form by September 27th to have a current representation of our community. Thank you! If you have any questions, please email vus@aaps.k12.mi.us with the subject: World Flags Project. Here is the link: LOGAN WORLD FLAG 2022-2023
Blogspot Family Letters
Did you know that the contents of these weekly updates are also published on a blog linked on the Logan webpage? This year, I’m going to begin pasting the link to this blog in my weekly updates as well. I encourage families to read the updates in blog format. The advantage to this format is that I can edit and modify the content of my weekly updates even after I publish the posts allowing me to correct errors when I make them. It also allows families to find all the information in one place without having to search your emails. I hope it is useful for the Logan community. Please bookmark the page and visit it as frequently as you’d like. Here’s the link.
Volunteering at Logan
Interested in volunteering at Logan? We’d love to have you! But first, all adults must complete a background check prior to volunteering at Logan. This includes working in our classrooms, helping out in the lunchroom, supporting in the library, and going on field trips. You must complete the background check every school year, even if you completed it in a previous year. Please click on the link below for directions.
