Tomorrow, Wednesday will be our class Christmas parties. All visitors must enter and leave through the main office. We appreciate those who preregistered and will turn that form off today at 4:00 p.m.. Thursday will be a regular school day with a 12:45 dismissal. We will return to school on Tuesday, January 9th at regular time.


In an effort of continuous safety for our students, we are going to be strictly enforcing our car placard system for next semester. Over the next week, those students who are car riders will begin to receive new placards. The previous ones you have will no longer be valid starting in January. Each child will receive two - if those are lost, you will need to come to the office with an ID and request a new one. Any vehicle that does not have a placard will have to pull around to the front office, show ID and collect their student. If you send another person to pick up your child, they must have the placard. We know that this might be difficult in the beginning, but we will continue to strive to ensure all students at Stanton Elementary are safe during the day and immediately after. If you child typically rides the bus, you may come to the office to request a placard in the event it is needed.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Miller at 432-607-3700 or mmiller@stanton.esc18.net
Again, thanks for your support.

Due to anticipated wet and very cold weather Thursday, we have made the decision to cancel our Jingle Jog. We will record our 3/4 students singing and post that on Friday along with our 5th grade STEM projects. In the spring, we will do a family PE day where you will be able to join your student for a workout. Health and safety are important to us, so we do not want any of our families catching anything but a good rain shower!


Teachers will be sending out information for our parties on December 20th, but you may begin to preregister here. Each person attending must complete form and bring ID with them or be prepared to show id and register that day.
