TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!! Encourage your students to dress up (school appropriate costumes only, please!) and participate in our parade and costume contest! There will be four winners! Parents wanting to come watch the parade and cheer on our students are welcome! The plan is to start it at 3:00 pm. And don't forget to send your students to school tomorrow with their jack-o'-lanterns! Those winners will be announced tomorrow afternoon as well! Let's get spooky, Coyotes! :)
High School students had a great time at Construction Con today! Students had the opportunity to explore the multitude of career opportunities and different pathways into the construction industry and participate in many industry-related games and activities!
NEXT WEEK!! Join us for our pumpkin carving contest on Monday and Tuesday! Have your students bring their completed jack-o'-lantern to school and display it in the lobby. Our judges will deliberate and announce the winners (TEN prizes up for grabs!) at the end of the day on Tuesday! Can't wait to see what our creative Coyotes come up with! :)
The Creative Arts students will be making fun, delicious food items to sell at the Fall Festival on Friday. Proceeds go to the Cody Hutchins memorial fund that will provide support to kids in need. Please come see what they have created and support their efforts by purchasing food items or donating to Cody’s fund.
On Thursday, October 26, Pawnee School will be releasing students and staff at 11:30 for the Celebration of Life Service for student Cody Hutchins. There will be a normal class schedule in the morning and we will be serving lunch before students are released. Buses will be leaving the school at 11:30. Pawnee School will be CLOSED in the afternoon. There will be NO transportation to sports practices. If your student, aged 5th grade and above, would like to attend Cody's Celebration of Life without you, the school is offering transportation to and from the service, which will be held at the Journey Christian Church, 4754 W. 31st Street, Greeley, CO 80634 at 3pm. The bus will leave Pawnee School at 12:45 pm and be returning around 6pm. If your student would like to ride the bus, they need to sign up in the office and return a signed permission slip. The memorial service will be very casual and, in true “Cody style” everyone is encouraged to dress in jeans, boots and t-shirts or Hawaiian shirts. If you have Pawnee logo clothing, please wear it to show the school's united support for the family. Permission Slip https://5il.co/27mb1 Cody's Obituary https://5il.co/27m9u
1st Grade Coyotes found a coyote on their field trip!
NO BOOKMOBILE on Thursday, October 19. Unfortunately the Bookmobile is in the shop, so it won't be visiting Pawnee School this week. If you have books checked out, they will be automatically renewed. If you happen to get an overdue notice don't worry, it will be taken care of.

1st graders learning about shadows.
A few of the high school Life Skills students and their finished pillows! I am so proud of the 7-12 graders. Almost every pillow is done! They have all done a great job and learned some sewing skills. Between the two class periods, 16 students sewed pillows. Thank you to Bobbi Hoffman and Paula Tietmeyer for their fabric donations which gave the kids lots of color and design choices. A special thank you to Mrs. Rita Johnston for helping students print their favorite images to the pillowtops.
The StuCo "Pie an Officer" fundraiser is up and running! $1 per vote. On Thursday, 10/19 the Student Council Officer with the most votes will get a pie in the face during lunch. The winner will also get to choose the charity that half of the proceeds will be donated to. Help us raise money for a good cause! (And have some fun while we're at it!) Voting buckets are in the office. Thanks, everyone!
