We enthusiastically welcomed Senator Nia Gill to School Thirteen.
Together with the entire 4th and 5th grade, Senator Gill walked the
students through the process of creating a legislative bill (Adding
bike paths across the state). Students were assigned key roles
within the process. In the picture is the final step, signing the
bill into law.

In Ms. Lehansky's 5th grade class last week they learned Prime
Factorization using the Factor Tree and Cake Tier method. One of the
students was having trouble understanding those methods. The class
came up with the cake idea when explaining that the Cake Tier method
was like a real cake in the fact that there are different levels and
tiers to a cake. James took a sheet he worked on and had the baker
scan it and print it onto the cake. I am sure James as well as the
rest of the class will never forget how to do Prime Factorization
using the Cake Tier method.

This year, School 13 has joined 25,000 schools
nationwide in the "Pennies for Patients/Olive
Garden's Pasta for Pennies!" For the next few weeks,
students will help people who are sick with blood cancers like
leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Students were provided with
collection boxes and encouraged to collect coins and work together
to aide thousands of children and adults in the fight to find a cure
for blood cancer. All proceeds will go directly toward cancer
research, patient support and public health education. After one
week, School 13 has already raised well over $1,000! The top
fundraising classroom will receive a pasta party sponsored by Olive
Garden and School 13 will be entered in a raffle to win an iPad! We
are proud to be part of such an important cause!

As the winter months approach it is so
important to dress your child for the colder temperatures. We will
go out on the playground when it is 40 degrees or higher. Hats,
mittens, scarves and warm winter jackets will ensure your child’s
comfort and health.

The Mustang Pride event was a lot of fun! There was music, dancing,
and food to enjoy on a bright autumn day. The walk around Memorial
park was exciting as all the participants carried their banners as
others cheered along the route.
Thank you to the Labudovic and
Sekiewicz families for participating. Thank you also to the
Lucariello family for their generous donation. This was the first
time School Thirteen participated in this important fundraiser for
our district. As you know the money collected from the event will be
used to update the stadium field and to update CHS auditorium. My
hope is that by the time our School Thirteen students are old enough
to enter the high school they will benefit from the Mustang Pride
Foundation.
