THE YETI YELL
March 10, 2024
Glacier Hills is a united community where all learners are awakened to their possibilities.
Hello Glacier Hills Community,
Daylight Savings time had us spring forward today. The time change is exciting as it marks the approach of spring, which is Tuesday, March 19th. The time change is also hard on our students. They struggle with the time change for a few weeks. Parents can help by sticking to a routine and making sure students are in bed on time.
We need your help! We are struggling with vandalism in the bathrooms. Wet paper towels are being thrown on the walls and left on the floors. We are also having students write on the walls and fixtures. Each teacher will be reviewing bathroom expectations. We would love your help in talking with your students individually about taking care of our beautiful new building, cleaning up after themselves, and being respectful of others. The Glacier Hills staff believe if parents and faculty have a unified message, students will be more likely to follow directions. Thank you in advance!
This week is family week at Glacier Hills. We have a wonderful PTA that has planned an incredible week for your families! The PTA will send ideas to do at home, they have organized a family skate night and will host a parents and pastries on Friday. Please see below for more information!
