Library USO
Last Chance to turn in Needed Items!
All classrooms are invited to sent in toiletry items in May for the USO. These can be sent in as late as the last day of school. Thank you to all the grade
levels, children, and parents for their support and caring!
May
School-wide
Any toiletry item
Turn in your Library books soon!
The week of May 13-17 will be the last week for students to visit
the library as a class. All books and magazines will be due back to the
library Monday, May 20.
If the library items are lost, please pay for the lost items to clear
your child’s account. Next year the student will be limited to one
checkout if there are outstanding loans.
The library will have the used book give-away for all the students
who have turned in all library items or have accounts paid in full.
Thanks for helping your child keep library books clean and dry
and bringing them back on time. Summer is a great time to read just for the fun
of it. Help them find a good book and share it together. See you in August.

Parkside Students are Motivated!!!!!

WOW.....Parkside students have been running their legs off to
earn their TOE-TOKENS!!!!!! Atterbury soldiers have been running
Toeens
with our students during our recess before lunch. We have formed
Tok
a great partnership with our soldiers who “LEAD BY EXAMPLE”
not only by serving our country but by living a healthy lifestyle. Our
students have collected 1,000 miles so far for spring. AWESOME job!
Atterbury soldiers came to Parkside to do a presentation to our fourth grade
and sixth grade students who participated with them in boot camp during our
PE classes. Soldiers took individual and group pictures of our students at the
boot camp. They framed them and gave them to our school which we will hang in
our gym hallway! Acts of kindness.
Parkside students have worked really hard maintaining their fitness/nutrition/PE homework, and assessing their data to show “BLUE,” the Colt’s mascot,
that they deserve the end-of-year Colt’s party. Students created a video tape and
scrapbook to present to the Colt’s committee really soon. If Parkside School is
choosen, the Colt’s party for us will be at the end of May. Wish us luck!!!!!!!!
Also, Parkside School will find out results of the Healthy Hoosier School
Award in late May. Parkside has won this fabulous award eight years in a row
from the state of Indiana.
Sixth grade final celebration will be on May 24, 2013. Information letter will
be coming home with your child soon about our fitness fun field day with the Atterbury soldiers.
Have a great fun fit summer!

R
espect for others is one of the most
important things children can learn from a
parent. Respect is the basis for most other
desirable behaviors.
Many leaders think that teaching children
The Golden Rule, to “Do unto others as you
would have them do unto you,” is the most
important thing parents can do. It shows
children how to live and work well with others.
Show your children examples of respect by
using the Golden Rule as you discipline them.
You wouldn’t want to be ridiculed in front of
your friends—and your children don’t either.
The Golden Rule comes most naturally to
children when we teach them to think about
another person’s feelings. Have your child

Thank You from the Green Team
The Parkside Green Team thanks you for sending
in your magazines and catalogs for their Earth Day

It’s that time of year again….end of the year and
locker clean out!! Teachers and parents, as you clean
out your classrooms and child’s backpacks, please
remember to recycle school papers in our ABITIBI
paper recycling bin!
For the 2012-2013 school year (Aug through
March), our school has recycled 40 tons of paper and
earned $562.00 for our PTO. Thank you for your
support throughout the school year and remember to
recycle all summer long too! This is the best fundraiser…one in which you do not have to sell anything!
THANK YOU to all the time and efforts of the
2012-13 Parkside Green Team who took out the
paper recycling all year long: Sydney Geckler, Claire

If you’ve never cut out labels from your
kids’ favorite cereals/General Mills products, Campbells label coupons, and Tyson

other easy fund raiser for Parkside in which
you can participate.
There are two collection containers close to the main cafeteria doors to
drop in what you have saved so far. The
next label roundup will be this fall. If
possible, please cut them on the dashed lines.
Thanks! 11
