While we still don't know for sure that we will be making the football playoffs, there is a good chance that we will be qualifying which means that we would be playing on Thursday, October 24th. This is also the night scheduled for parent-teacher conferences. After some discussion, it was decided to make the following changes:
*Move parent-teacher conferences from Thursday, October 24th to Tuesday, October 29th.
*Keep a 2:00 dismissal for Thursday, October 24th as we likely will be on the road if we do make the playoffs and a couple of the locations are a little farther away.
*With parent-teacher conferences on Tuesday, October 29th, this would be a 2:00 dismissal.
*Keep no school on Friday, October 25th.
Parents of elementary students should use the following link to sign-up for a time slot (https://bit.ly/4gYUIk4). Parents of middle school/high school students are encouraged to stop and visit teachers between 3:00 PM and 9:00 PM.
There will be benefit for Mallory Jahn and her family during the night of parent-teacher conferences with there being a hot ham and cheese meal served in the Commons. Additional information will be provided at a later time.

Tornado Nation...A good deed in our High School from an excellent example of the fantastic students and staff we have here at CHS! Librarian Linda Holmberg awarded Junior student Anna Marohl with a "Good Deed of the Day"! She said, "I was busy getting signs ready during homecoming week and Anna was waiting in town for volleyball. She came over to me and wanted to know if there was anything she could help me with and offered to help." When snapping a photo of these two she also mentioned, "I could give this young lady one of these every day!" Way to be a great example of service and kindness to others Anna! #GOODDEED #DEEDOFTHEDAY #TORNADOPRIDE

Big shoutout to 4th Grade student Myles Lindstrom who received a "Good Deed of the Day" from his teacher Mrs. Fischer! She said, "Myles is always willing to lend a hand. During the homecoming parade, he took off his hat and walked back and forth fanning his classmates to keep them cool. He even wanted to run to the gas station to buy everyone waters! Thank you for always being so kind Myles." #GOODDEED #DEEDOFTHEDAY #TORNADOPRIDE

Information for Marching Band Friday 10/4 @ Menno
The theme last week for library was Fall/Harvest Moon. The Kindergarteners read the story "Kitten's First Full Moon" and made harvest moons with Dotter markers and added a kitten silhouette. The 4th graders learned about the harvest moon, the fall equinox and the different phases of the moon last week. Their activity was to create each phase of the moon using Oreos with orange cream and a plastic knife to cut the cream to simulate the corresponding moon phase on their sheet. The 1st graders read the story "By the Light of the Harvest Moon" and created their very own leaf people! Third graders learned about the fall equinox and why the harvest moon is so big and orange and the history behind it being called the harvest moon. They made chalk drawings of the harvest moon and added the silhouette of a tree. Second graders learned about the harvest moon as well and we talked about the different seasons we experience. They then did Q-tip paintings of what a tree looks like during each season.
Good morning Tornado Nation! Shoutout to 7th Grade Student Claire Edberg who was given a "Good Deed of the Day" from Middle School Math/Science Teacher Mr. Haiar. He said, "After the 8th period bell a classmate of hers spilled everything in their pencil case. Instead of speeding out of the classroom since school was over, she went out of her way to help this classmate pick everything up and make sure they had everything before she left." What a kind act! Great job Claire! #GOODDEED #DEEDOFTHEDAY #TORNADOPRIDE
