Holiday Cheer

In an effort to spread holiday cheer this season, we look forward to connecting resources in our community through an optional, anonymous present exchange for Alpine families.

If you express a need for support during the holidays, someone from the office will contact you to find out the ages, interests, clothing sizes, etc. for the people interested in receiving some holiday cheer. We will anonymously connect families who would like to give some cheer to our community.

We need all unwrapped presents delivered to the school by Monday, December 9th so we can organize them for pick up.

We will coordinate pick up with receiving families anytime between December 11th-18th.

Click here to sign up to give or get some cheer this holiday season.


Holiday Cheer

En  esfuerzo por compartir alegría en esta temporada, esperamos conectar recursos en nuestra comunidad a través de un intercambio de regalos opcional y anónimo para las familias de Alpine.

Si expresa la necesidad de recibir apoyo durante las fiestas, alguien de la oficina se pondrá en contacto con usted para conocer las edades, intereses, tallas de ropa, etc., de las personas interesadas en recibir un poco de alegría. Conectaremos de manera anónima a las familias que deseen brindar un poco de alegría a nuestra comunidad.

Necesitamos que todos los regalos sin envolver sean entregados en la escuela antes del lunes 9 de diciembre para poder organizarlos para su recolección.

Coordinaremos la recolección con las familias receptoras en cualquier momento entre el 11 y el 18 de diciembre.

VETERAN’S DAY CELEBRATION SCHEDULE

9:15 Veterans arrive to the library for instructions about our ceremony

9:25 Ceremony begins in the gymnasium

10:00 Veterans visit with classrooms to briefly share a story or two and answer a few questions

10:30 Veterans return to the library for a light breakfast and coffee reception


Inquiry through Play

As winter comes and the weather forces us inside, parents too often hear the words, “I’m bored,” and wonder how to help.  I encourage parents to read the International Baccalaureate Organization’s publication, “Inquiry through Play: Supporting PYP Parents.”  Sourced from Michigan State University, UNICEF and the LEGO Foundation, it’s loaded with ideas and supported by brain science.

Alpine Cafecito


Alpine Community Night

Order Noodles & Company - Chicago, IL ...

Hello everyone! Our last Community Night raised $262. Great job everyone!  Our next Community Night will be on Wednesday, November 13 from 4-8pm at the Noodles & Co located at 2255 Main Street. They will donate 25% of the proceeds from all orders during that window. Note that in order for Alpine to get credit you must mention Alpine at the restaurant or use the code GIVING25 online. If you have time to eat there in person then you may be able to make friends with some other Alpine families. Hope to see you all there!
