FROM HCPSS Re: Last Day of School
Five inclement weather make up days were built into the 2013-2014 school calendar, which identifies June 18 as the last day of school. As of today, all five of those days have been used, plus one additional inclement weather day. Maryland law requires a minimum of 180 school days each year.
Once the winter season has ended, the Board of Education will make a decision regarding the makeup of the additional missed day(s).
PTA NEWS!
Laurel Woods is participating in the Kindermender Decathlon- a fun, healthy community program where local elementary schools are competing with one another to get fit! There are ten habits to try daily for 15 days. How many can you do? Families who do them together will be more successful. And why not? You each have nothing to lose and only better health to gain! Students check off each healthy habit on their scorecard as they complete them (students only please; parents please sign cards at the bottom), with the goal of doing as many tasks as possible for 2 weeks- all for better health, a chance to win a family prize* and help our school PTA win funds for our programs!
Who will have the healthiest school? We will find out on March 15!
It’s easy- just check off the healthy habits you do from Sat., March 1 - Sat., March 15 on your scorecard and either 1) turn in your card yourself to the Laurel Kindermender on March 15 from 12-3:00pm during their finale celebration or 2) We’ll turn it in for you if your student brings their card to school on Friday, March 14! Every check for completing a healthy habit will equal one point for our school.
Scorecards and more information to come home this Friday.

*The family prize “Fun Pak” is donated by our PTA/school and will be raffled the week after the program ends- its a fun-filled activity kit for the whole family!
