Hello Gardner Families, Wow! On Thursday evening we had a heart-felt BookQuest event with over 70 student authors! It made us so proud to see not only their talent in writing but a love for reading. The evening would not have been possible without two special parents who worked tirelessly to make it happen. Thank you very much toAnna Kermani and Elaine Wang who both put so much thoughtfulness into this very special event. Again, we are very proud of all of our authors and look forward to seeing how they continue to write. Bear Paw Paper Speaking of a reading and writing, I am very proud to share our 1st edition of the Bear Paw Paper - brought to you by our very own Gardner students who have worked very hard to make this happen. Please Enjoy! Heavenly Hats The Student Council would like to tell you about a fundraising event that will take place next Friday, March 10th. Students may wear their favorite hat to school in exchange for a minimum $1 donation that we will then donate to the Cancer Society and specifically to a local hospital with children battling cancer. As much as possible, we encourage donations to actually come from the students’ very own piggy banks to help make the donation feel special. In exchange for their donation, they will receive a sticker to wear and an opportunity to wear their hat to school. To celebrate our hats, the entire school will participate in a “hat parade” during morning assembly on Friday, March 10th!
