East Families: A friendly reminder that today is early dismissal at 2:05pm
We are happy to announce the results of the Student Senate Top Turkey contest. Congratulations to our top three winners: for 3rd place Ms. Hanners, followed by Mrs. Long in 2nd place, and the 2024 Unity East Top Turkey, Miss Bagwell! Thank you to all who donated to Top Turkey this year!
Earlier this week we had over 300 students and family members stop by our Family Night and Book Fair. A special thank you to the PTO for putting on the book fair and to the team of teachers that planned and pulled together the pirate night and scavenger hunt! We hope everyone who attended had a good evening!
Sharing a positive note that came our way yesterday: "Today I was in my car on the east side of the school waiting to pick up. I observed Ms Cline exit with her little ones behind headed for the school buses. Before they reached the last bus, the older kids came out and headed for the buses. The older kids then waited for the littles to get on the buses! They stood there, faces into the blowing snow, until the last little got on the bus. I was impressed by their kindness. Someone is doing something right!"
Great job showing kindness, 3rd/4th/5th!

Unity East Student Senate is hosting a small fundraiser next week, our annual Top Turkey contest. Students can vote for a favorite staff member by buying a feather for 25 cents. The teacher with the most feathers wins a lovely turkey crown and sash to wear the day before break! Proceeds will benefit Unity East Student Senate projects.

4th Graders from East had a great field trip on Friday. They started the day visiting the Champaign County Courthouse to view the Abraham Lincoln musueum and meet with courthouse staff to learn about the judicial process. After a stop at the park for lunch they visited Reflections Memory Care in Savoy for an inter-generational visit where they enjoyed time with the residents and shared several rounds of bingo. Great job representing Unity, 4th grade!
