Did you receive a holiday card from Granby Public Schools this year? There were so many amazing submissions that I couldn't pick just one! Thank you to all of the artists that entered their design for consideration and congratulation to Isabella Hurczyn (gr. 11) and Avery Burgess (gr. 2) for being selected this year. Happy New Year!
Welcome Back and Happy New Year!
It was a fun day at Kelly Lane as we welcomed for the first time, the Chamber Singers from GMHS, to our Holiday Sing-a-Long! Staff and students enjoyed hearing their beautiful voices sing and I think they were impressed by the voices of Kelly Lane. Thank you to Mrs. Shilansky for sharing your students with us and as always thank you Mrs. Lucas for another awesome and well love tradition at Kelly Lane!
Tomorrow we will be celebrating CCMC PJ Day by wearing our favorite pajamas to show support for children who have to wear theirs for extended periods during hospital stays.
We will also be collecting donations to contribute to this meaningful cause, though participation in donations is completely optional—students are welcome to wear their PJs whether or not they choose to donate.
There are three ways to donate this year:
Cash Donations: Students can bring cash in a clearly marked envelope labeled "PJ Day" on Friday, December 13. Please note that checks are not accepted.
Online Donations: Families can donate online at www.pjdayforthekids.org. Donations can be credited to any of our Granby schools or, if families have children in multiple schools, to Granby Public Schools as a whole.
QR Code: Donations can also be made by scanning the QR code on the flyer.
Let’s make this year’s PJ Day special as we come together to support an amazing cause!

In Mrs. Michalski's Second Grade Class, students participate in Morning Meeting each day. We have special helpers who read a message and discuss important activities we will be participating in throughout the day. We also greet each other and share important news from our lives. Here, we are responding to a fun holiday themed dice prompt where we get to share our favorite holiday book, movie, food, or activity to do over winter break. We so enjoy this part of our school day!

REMINDER
In Mrs. Lloyd's first grade class we shared our informational writing and gave positive feedback! We worked hard over the last few weeks to write each page of our story, revise them, publish them, and now we got to share them! The students worked really hard and enjoyed getting to share their hard work and hear feedback from their peers.
