We will have a short party that day, February 14th. It is VERY SHORT-12:40-12:55. The students exchange cards and play with the trinkets/stickers and whatever else they receive that day. I don’t need any help this day from parents but you are always welcome to hang out with us.
Valentine boxes are not required but can be brought. They need to be made at home not at school. They can be very simple or elaborate it is up to you. If they don’t have a box to put cards into, I will provide them with a bag that day.
Quest guidelines in regards to Valentine’s:
“Per Quest’s wellness policy, all food in the classroom must be pre-approved. Furthermore, parental permission is also required for students to consume food during class parties. Due to this policy—as in years past—student Valentines cannot contain edible items. Suggestions for nonfood Valentines include pencils, erasers, bubbles, stickers, etc. Please note that such items, including Valentine cards, are in no way required.
”
We have 27 students in our class. Please have your child sign their name and not address the cards to anyone specific. That way they can be passed out quickly. Please have them bring enough for everyone in our class. Again, passing out cards in optional.
