Reflections
The Reflections Art Program is back and your kids are pumped to participate!
Last year Alpine Elementary had more entries than any other school in the NATION! And we can do it again!
We visited classrooms this week and asked who will enter – nearly every hand went up. Our hope is that you can keep the excitement alive and encourage your children to participate (they will also need your help submitting their artwork online).
Important dates/mark your calendar:
Reflections Due Date – October 24
Lunch Party for participants – October 26
Awards Night/Art Showcase – November 14
We have prizes for every student that participates, prizes for classrooms with the highest participation, a party for all participants, and an art showcase/awards night for students and their families. (Prizes include Hale Theater tickets, Ballet West tickets, Shoot360 memberships, Gift Cards (restaurants, movie theaters, etc), Crumbl cookie cards, and lots more).
Entries need to be submitted electronically here: https://www.utahpta.org/ref (this is also where instructions and rules are found).
From the Lunchroom
A reminder to everyone to please make sure your student(s) have money in their lunch accounts. If you need help with this, you can simply log on to linq Connect and register. In addition to making payments, you can view your student account balances, history, set up automatic payments and account balance alerts. Also, our kitchen can accept cash or checks for meal payments. Additionally, we cannot give change so all money given will be placed into your student’s account. If you have any questions or may need help, please do not hesitate to contact the main office at 801-610-8700.
