We really could not be more grateful and thankful for all the hard work that went into the Fun Run! The rewards for the top performers are as follows:
Each Grade Level Winner will get a limousine ride with Mr. Zielinski to lunch at a restaurant in the area. For 3rd Grade, there was a tie, so both students will get to go out to lunch!

Please allow some time when possible to review the resources and research on MTSS . We have our first child study meetings next week and I am looking forward to addressing our needs. I love this simple, problem solving pic that illustrates the process of intervention.

Halloween at Arno Elementary.
- Monday, October 31st.
- 10:30 AM. Halloween Parade. Outside
- Classroom teacher will communicate to you about any other events
Costumes:
- Students will wear their costumes to school.
- All costumes must be school appropriate
- No play guns or weapons of any kind
- Please do not allow your child to wear a mask. Masks tend to slip causing a possible trip and fall accident / injury.
Parade Path:
- Weather permitting. We will be outside for our parade. Our plan is to start the parade with our Kindergarten classes. We will walk through the building picking up each class and exit door # 8(5th grade doors). We will walk around the inside perimeter of the playground fence, and then down the way to enter through the office main door- the best place to stand and watch would be on the outer perimeter of the fence, and along the sidewalk to the office. Each class will then proceed back to their classrooms.
Run Club begins…
