Amelia Earhart Elementary School

Earhart Family, We are kicking off a fall fundraiser for the month of October and we need your help! Each classroom will work together and fill the calendar for October. If you want to purchase Day 1 - send in $1 and the form; Day 25 - send in $25, etc. The goal is for every class to completely fill their calendar, plus some extra! The highest earning class PER grade will receive a pizza party from PTO! Each class will also have a chance to earn a popcorn party if the class sells every day on the calendar! We will use the funds raised to help purchase walkie talkies for each classroom! This will help increase safety inside our school and classrooms! We appreciate your support! Check your students folder for the flier and the form to complete and send back in with your donation! Earhart PTO

Classes at Amelia Earhart recently participated in activities to celebrate Freedom Week and Constitution Day. In Kindergarten, students learned what it means to be patriotic, learned about the United States Constitution and created their own Classroom Constitution.

This week we are hosting a "No Seat Left Unfilled Week!" We'd like to have all of our students in attendance the rest of this week! After back to back 3 day weekends, we have had a significant number of students gone on our first day back to start the week! In order to keep students moving in the right direction, we need them here every day, so let's get this started tomorrow with 100% attendance! We know there are going to be days where students don't feel well or have appointments. On those days, if you could please be sure to call in to the office at 316-794-4080 to let us know your student will not be at school, we'd greatly appreciate it! See everyone tomorrow!
