Today is National Read Across America Day! 4th graders in Mrs. Kasper's class celebrated the day with a Read-In. The Compass LC readers brought blankets, pajamas and stuffed animals in for the Read-In. The National Education Association started "Read Across America" to encourage children to read and to get excited about books.
It's also known as "Dr. Seuss" day in honor of his birthday. The American author is best known for writing more than 60 children's books.
With some warmer weather coming our way, it was a fun start to the school week for students at Compass Learning Center. During Mr. Kasper's PE class this morning, these 6th graders took advantage of what snow we have left and went sledding.
5th and 7th graders are also getting in on the action today.

We will have supply pickup on January 15th and February 5th for 5th and 6th grade distance classes at Compass Learning Center. This will be happening at 9am-12pm and 1pm-3pm both days.
All materials will be distributed from our main entrance at Compass. We are asking families to park along the right side of the circle drive, where they will be greeted by staff. Due to safety, all families will remain in their vehicles while staff members will work to quickly gather materials.
When you arrive, a staff member will greet you at the curb. Please hand a piece of paper with your child’s name, grade, and homeroom teacher to the staff member present. This will help that staff member locate the materials quickly.
January 2021 breakfast and lunch menus for Compass Learning Center have been released
