Fox and Bear Community


We are enjoying our study of the Earth and we are exploring creation stories.  The children are becoming more aware of time management and most of them are completing their daily work.   You should have received an email yesterday regarding your child's teacher of contact.  If you did not, please let us know.


If your child needs to stay home with an illness please be sure to send in a written or emailed excuse when they are out or upon return to school.  Excuses sent in remind are difficult for us to print.


Two of our own Ellis students are participating in a Do Good Grant.  Please participate if you would like to help the families of Maui.

Fox and Bear Wish List


water bottle containing water 

(no prime/juice/Gatorade)


headphones (with a microphone if possible)  

If your child already had headphones in the classroom last year, you do not need to send an additional set.


coffee filters


Guinea pig hay



Amazon Wish List


Thank you for the donation of a set of lunch trays!  We are still in need of an additional set and a also a set of child sized brooms if you are able to make those donations we would greatly appreciate it!  These items can be found at the amazon link above.    


The children received their computers this week.  If you have not filled out the technology form in Power School, your child will not receive a device.  We strongly recommend that you purchase the $25 insurance.  A cracked screen will cost $90 without the insurance.
