From the PTA
Happy Healthy Heart Month! Red is symbolic for love and health and we have many events in the month of February that remind us of these two!
Our Happy Camper Scholastic Bookfair will be kicking off the week of February 12th. Look for information to come home early next week about our book fair!
On Thursday, February 16th, from 1:00-7:00 pm, come be a “Pint-Sized Hero” and help your school and community out by donating blood. The American Red Cross will be on hand to host and deliver delicious juice and cookies to those that donate.
Just because the Lions didn’t make The Super Bowl this year, doesn’t mean you still can’t have a Super Bowl Party! Remember to shop at Kroger with your linked Kroger Card to benefit your school!
Also, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and maybe your students class is having a party? Kroger has great deals on treats and Valentine’s for friends and maybe even a Special Teacher. If you can’t find what you need at Kroger, Amazon Smiles will probably have what you’re looking for! When you shop at either place, it helps benefit your school!
If you have a 5th Grader at Arno, Mrs. Hool needs your help! She’s trying to put together a photo collage for the outgoing 5th Graders and needs a parent volunteer to help her out. She will provide the photos, but she needs your help organizing them and creating that special, tear-jerking, photo collage. If you’re interested or would like more information about the project, please contact Mrs. Hool at: hool@appublicschools.com.
Have a great weekend and remember that Monday, February 6th is the beginning of Spirit Week, so dress your Caring Cougar in their Arno Spirit Wear!
BMX Anti-bullying Assembly Feb 6 Grades 3-5
We are excited to bring in Matt Wilhelm into our district as he will be doing shows for Arno, Lindemann and APMS. Here at Arno, we will start our assembly for grades 3-5 at 1:15, lasting around 45 minutes.
Spirit Week
Parent/Teacher Conferences
Winter conferences are coming up quick on February 15 and 16 from 5:00-7:30 each night.
The links have gone live on the blog as of today. Please be sure to also share that with your parent communication, and be clear on you wish to have a conference with so you don’t end up with mass sign-ups. Please let me know in advance if you would like me to sit in on a conference.
Survey Time
The survey for staff opens today and runs through Feb 10. Please take a few moments to complete the survey to help us better improve our school. The student survey will be done in the lab Grades 3-5 with Carrie, the parent survey also goes live today. Thanks for your participation! (To date, we only have 2 staff members who have completed the survey)

PBIS
Arno Cougars were getting their energy out last Friday when we had a guest instructor come in for The January PBIS reward, which was Zumba. As you can see below, it was a great, healthy way to celebrate our positive behavior.
100% Book Return Club
We are so proud of our many Arno students that are celebrating having 100% book return! Including students from Ms. DiCarlo, Mrs. Higgins, Mrs. Schultz, Mrs. Wesley, Mr. Trionfi, Mrs. Hool, and Mr. Creutz! Great job!
Great Tweet from Marzano
