Ames Student Council Chipotle Fundraiser – Today and more...

Student Council has organized a fundraiser at Chipotle on Cermak Road in Berwyn on Monday, December 10th from 4:00pm to 8:00pm.

Take a night off from cooking and come grab some tacos or a burrito with our awesome Ames students and their families from our amazing school community!  Some of our fabulous teachers will be joining us, as well.

Our Ames Student Council looks forward to eating dinner with our families at Chipotle and raising money for our school and students.

    

Come to the PTA Meeting this Friday 12/7 at 8:30am in the Art Room where D96 Board Members and Superintendent Ryan-Toye will give an update of the progress of the Facility Advisory Committee with regard to the Ames Addition.

    

Congratulations to Ms. Ohlman’s 2nd grade class.  They were the winners of the Box Tops for Education November Drive.

    

Dear Ames students, family and friends,

BRRRR! The weather is getting colder and the holidays are here! As families begin baking holiday treats, don’t forget to save your box tops for Ames! Remember to check the expiration dates on your Box Tops! If they’re expired, don’t send them to school; expired Box Tops cannot be accepted. This month’s prize will be a jolly treat. Which class will redeem the trophy? Please submit forms by January 8th complete with teachers name and if in kindergarten state AM or PM. For updates and class winners please follow https://m.facebook.com/BTFAmesElementarySchool

Thank you, Aisha Ilic

In Junior Great Books, 2nd – 5th grade students read stories and share their ideas and opinions about that they read. The narratives have been selected to spark children’s ideas, and promote discussion while expanding their literary exposure. Groups meet weekly beginning the week of January 7, and end mid-March. The students and adult leader meet during lunch hour and discuss the stories while eating lunch together. The kids love the idea of eating in a classroom and participating in a “book club”.

If your child is interested in being a part of Junior Great Books, please fill out this form Junior Great Books Sign Up and return it, along with a $5/child book rental fee, no later than Friday, December 7, 2018.

NOTE: This is a voluntary program. Please be sure your child wants to participate, as unwilling participants tend to be disruptive. Late sign-ups  cannot be accepted.
