Costume party at Howland Glen!
Hello Glen Families,
Starting Thursday, 10/28, we will no longer accept bookbag tags in place of the full-size rearview mirror tags for car riders. If another person will pick up your child and does not have the rearview mirror tag, you must call the school to let us know who will be picking up your child. That person must show their driver's license in the car line.
A reminder that our costume party during school hours will take place this Friday, 10/29, and will not be open to parents. Students will change into their costumes about 1:30, so please do not have them wear their costumes to school. Additionally, there is no costume parade this year.
Our Rockin October Costume Party, put on by the PTO, will take place here at Glen starting at 4:30 PM and running until 7:30 PM. There will be an inflatable slide in the gym, rock painting, a scavenger hunt, candy provided by our local police and fire department, and more! Wear your costume and enjoy the fun! The slide will be indoors due to the rain, so please have a mask for your child while they are indoors. A parent/guardian must accompany your child at this event.
I look forward to seeing everyone Friday night!

Hello Glen Families,
The Harvest/Costume Party at Howland Glen will be held on Friday, Oct. 29th. This party is NOT open to parents/guardians. However, our PTO has selected a couple of volunteers for each class to help facilitate the craft and games. A few things to keep in mind: 1. Please do not send your child to school dressed in any part of his/her costume. 2. Please use your best judgement when designing your child's costume. It should be easy to put on, no blood, weapons or extreme gore should be considered appropriate. 3. In consideration of children and adults with asthma, do not send in any type of hair spray (including paint). 4. Do not send in any food items to be distributed. 5. There will be no costume parade this year. However, we do invite you and your student(s) to attend our "Rockin' October Costume Party" here at Howland Glen from 4:30 to 7:30 PM. This is an outdoor event - rain or shine! There will be an inflatable slide, rock painting, a scavenger hunt and more! Wear your costume and enjoy the fun!
Kind Regards,
Mr. Roth
Mrs. Bell’s class learning about life in the 1800’s. “Century Village in Burton, Ohio features a restored town that showcases life in Geauga County in the early 1800s.”
Mrs. Schrock’s class on Savvy Science Day. They read about the growth of the pumpkins to compare/contrast with what they learned about the life cycle of the apple tree. They then checked if the pumpkin would float and found all the parts that they read about!
Reminder…this Wednesday is picture day! Order online using the link on the Glen webpage or send your paper form in with payment on Wednesday.
Have a great evening!
Mr. Roth

Happy Labor Day Glen families!
We anticipate a large number of car riders during the first two weeks of school, so here are some reminders to help speed up the process when dropping off and picking up your child. Please pull all the way up to the stop sign in the unloading/loading zone or pull close to the car in front of you. We would like to have as many cars as possible unloading/loading between the two signs (the zone) as possible. This ensures that we can send groups of cars through in waves. Do not wait until you are at front to have your child exit if you are already in the zone. Doing so slows down the process and holds up empty cars behind you. Please have your child exit on the driver’s side so they are not walking between vehicles. Doors will open around 8:45 a.m. and someone will signal you to have your child exit. (only if you are in the unloading zone). Pickup works in the same fashion and will begin between 3:15-3:20. Please have your car tag clearly visible. If you do not have your tag, please park and go to the main office with your photo ID after the buses have left. If your child requires buckling or other attention, please pull into a parking space so we may keep the line moving. For additional information and a map, please visit the Glen webpage. Thank you and we look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!
Kind Regards,
Mr. Roth

Hello Glen Families,
This is a reminder that tomorrow is a FULL DAY of school and NOT an early release day. If you have an appointment and plan to pick your child up early from school, please remember to send in a note with your child. Also, please remember that you MUST bring your driver’s license to the office to sign your child out early. Thank you!
Additionally, teachers will be busy next week, planning for our August summer school. Parents of students who meet the criteria will be informed via email in June.
Thank you,
Mr. Roth
