Swink School is researching a move to a new SIS (Student Information System) called ALMA. If the district moves in this direction, it would replace GoEdustar. We invite parents to attend a demonstration of ALMA on Thursday at 6 pm in the conference room.

We invite all students and staff to join in the fun of our Holiday DressUp Days. The community is also invited to come and participate in Carolling at 3:30 pm each afternoon in the MPR.

Monday: Merry & Bright Monday Wear your brightest red and green outfits or anything decorated with Christmas lights, sparkles, or glitter.

Tuesday: Tacky Sweater Tuesday Students wear their ugliest, funniest, or most creative holiday sweater—the sillier, the better!

Wednesday: Santa & Friends Wednesday: Dress up as Santa, elves, reindeer, snowmen, or any holiday character. (Headbands, hats, and simple accessories work great.)

Thursday: Santa vs. Grinch Day
Pick a side! Will you spread Christmas cheer like Santa in all red, or show your mischievous side like the Grinch in all green? Dress head-to-toe in your team's color and let the festive battle begin!
