February 10, 2017 Dear Parents and Guardians, During the week of February 13th, you are invited to meet with your child(ren)’s teacher(s) during Parent/Teacher Conferences. In order to arrange conference times that best meet the needs of all of our parents, students will be dismissed at 10:50 AM on Thursday, February 16th and there will be no school on Friday, February 17th. In observance of President’s Day, there will also be no school on Monday, February 20th. The teachers look forward to conferring with you regarding your child’s learning. At our first set of conferences, parents and teachers established goals for the children. At our second set of conferences, first through fourth grade students are invited to be part of student-involved conferences. By including the students in the conference they are able to share their learning with you and receive immediate feedback about their progress. Please look for information from your child’s teacher for specific details. As always, if you need additional information or time to speak with your child’s teacher, please let them know. The support you offer your children and the staff at Prairieview is greatly appreciated. Your thoughts regarding your child's learning are valued. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely, Vince Murray

Hi Parents, My name is Amy Logan and I am the author of A Girl With A Cape™. I am excited to tell you that I will be visiting your child(ren)’s group soon to share this story! Let me give you a little summary of what the first (there are 4 in the series) book is about:

A little girl wears a really cute leopard-print scarf as a cape because she thinks of herself as a superhero and wants to make a big difference in the world. As the days pass, she goes about her day while looking for something BIG she can do, and in the mean time, she’s using kind words, being polite, and doing kind things. By the end of the week, she doesn’t feel that she’s made a difference and gets angry at her “cape,” throws it down, and yells at it. Mom overhears this and assures her that she HAS made a difference in the world - a BIG difference. She tells her that her WORDS are her superpower and that she can change the world by her kind words and her actions.

I have a feeling that not only will your child(ren) love this story, but you will too! A Girl With A Cape™ and now A BOY WITH A CAPE are all about paying it forward with kindness. I believe that these stories will help spread awareness about the importance of our everyday actions, and just as important, be a story that kids and adults will cherish for a long time. I believe YOU are very important in helping me spread this awareness & in helping to create a world full of superheroes ~ our children. How can you help? On A Girl With A Cape’s website: www.GotYourCape.com/rockthecape, there’s a calendar that you can download & print for your child to keep track of all the kind things they do or say on a monthly basis. Once they complete a month, you can mail/email it to our office so they can get an I Make A Difference card in the mail signed by me & get entered into a drawing for something fun! There are also other activities on the site they can print up and do. Books are available for purchase at www.GotYourCape.com.

I want to thank you in advance for you support of A Girl With A Cape™. It takes a village to raise a child, and it takes our children to change the world. That has to start with us. Here’s to changing the world, one random act of kindness at a time!

Feel free to contact me at amy@amylogan.net, and pass this info along.

#YouMatter #RockTheCape
