Ebenezer is planning a garage sale in the spring.  As you begin cleaning out closets, items that are still in good condition may become someone else’s treasure at the Ebenezer garage sale.  Items can be brought to the school or taken to the home of Erica Wahlquist.  Your support is greatly appreciated.

 

A Scrap Booking Day is being planned for Saturday, February 2 from 9:00am to 5:00pm, at the Christian Reformed Church.  The cost will be $20 and lunch will be included.  If you would like to register for this or if you have any questions, call Kelli Lorentz at 698-4690.

 

The teachers would like to thank everyone (parents, students, & school board members) for the cards, thoughts, prayers, and gifts during the Christmas season.  It was all truly appreciated.

 

Noon recess volunteers:  The time is 11:35am to 12:40pm and includes monitoring the lunchroom and watching over the students during recess after lunch. Any questions or if you would like to volunteer, call Mike or Karen Hollabaugh at 796-2659 or email at rntrucker@yahooo.com  (note this is a new address).

School News:

An ice skating outing is being planed for all of the students on Wednesday, January 23rd, at 1:00pm.  If your child does not have skates, please let the school know.  We need to know how many students need skates and would like to find skates for everyone to use.  If you have extra skates, which you could loan for that day please let us know.

There will be an all school play on April 18.  The students received their parts on January 9.  Please help your child learn their lines.

Preschool registration has begun.  If you would like to enroll your child again for the Fall Class of 2008, please let Erica Wahlquist know as soon as possible.  It will fill up fast!  Preschool students will need to bring old Christmas and Birthday cards for a class project.  Thank you to everyone who brought in milk jugs. It was greatly appreciated.
