Our Halloween party is coming soon! We have three moms who are planning our party for us! If you signed up to help with this party at the open house, than you will be receiving an e-mail soon from the party moms. This e-mail will fill you in on what needs to be donated.
All of you are more than welcome to join us for our party. It will be on Oct. 31st from 2:30-3:25. The students will get their costumes on during recess at 2:10 and be ready to party at 2:30!
Thank you in advance to all who will be donating your time and or items.
With tomorrow being my birthday the kids asked if we could have p.j/comfy day on Monday, October 21st! I said that sounded like a plan. Therefore, tomorrow the students may wear p.j’s/comfy clothes and bring a stuffed animal if they wish! 🙂 It should be a happy day! 🙂
Our class was so on task throughout the whole day that they moved up to OOBER GOOBER AWESOME on our classroom rainbow chart! That is above outstanding! Great job 4th graders! 🙂
Parents, I sent home many of the students content writing review papers that we have worked on since the beginning of the year. Please take time to look at them with your child and ask them about the different writings they have done. I know your will be impressed! 🙂
Hello Georgetown Families!
Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow night is a MARCO’S Pizza Night. This is a great way to earn money for Georgetown! Easy too!! Think of it this way……. it is a good way to get out of making dinner also. What could be better?! : )
Please remember when ordering to give them your student’s teacher name. The class with the most participation will win a pizza party for lunch on behalf of MARCO’S Pizza!!
Enjoy your pizza!
The Georgetown PTC
Just a reminder to ask your child each night to see his/her book log. Please discuss with them nightly how far they read that evening! I have been having multiple students not remembering to keep track of their reading on their reading logs! Thank you for taking the 
time to look for this nightly and for being involved in their daily reading!
A few pictures of spending time with our reading/bus buddies! 🙂
This Friday is the big Homecoming football game at Eagle Stadium. The game starts at 7 o’clock in the evening and there many activities happening before the game (see the below information) to entertain everyone! In celebration of Homecoming, we are asking all students to dress in their best Hudsonville gear for Friday. Wear maize and blue to support our school, and to show your Eagle Pride!
I will be wearing my blue and gold for the big game and I hope all the students will come ready to cheer on the Eagles. We even have some “SUPER” guests coming to school to help us get in the spirit of cheering on our team! BEAT GRAND HAVEN!

Hi Parents,
Here’s a final reminder from our gym teachers about Turkey Trot! It’s coming fast and forms are due tomorrow, October 8!
Check out their blog post by clicking here.
Hi Parents!
As you know from my earlier blog post (Oct 1), the MEAP begins this week. I have listed our grade level test times below. The test days are mandated by the State.
MEAP RULES:
On test days, all students must be on time. If they are late, and the test has begun, they cannot take the test that day. Late students will need to sit in the office until the test is completed and take the test on one of the make up dates (also mandated and determined by the state).
Furthermore, if you child needs to leave during the test time, any unanswered questions are scored as wrong. We ask that you NOT interrupt the MEAP test schedule.
We want all children to do their very best. This is a high stakes test and we want to do all we can to support them.
Thank you for your support!
Mrs. W’s MEAP Rules: Please see that your child gets plenty of sleep and eats a good breakfast
