Rain doesn't dampen spirits for Hawaiian BBQ
The pouring rain didn't stop Haley, from enjoying the freshly grilled hamburgers and hotdogs served by Sodexho at the Hawaiian BBQ last Friday, September 28th. In spite of the weather, students wore their flip flops and dressed as if they were headed for the beach. First grader, Zoe, spent hours working on her grass skirt. It was a great time for parents to come and have lunch with their students and many parents dressed up as well..

Open House Night

Many families attend Open House

Teachers greeted their students and met families at the annual Open House Night, Thursday night. Teachers were able to share with parents classroom procedures, as well as sign-up opportunities for classroom assistance. Parents had the opportunity to see the new SMART boards in Mr. Stenlund and Mr. Kiser's rooms.
Mr. Hanson and Mrs. Herbert shared the P.E. Pick Program that supports literacy and the local Boy Scouts presented as well.
Many families attended the Scholastic Book Fair and children had the opportunity to meet Clifford, the Big Red Dog, too.

Salem Public Library Reading Program

Results of the Salem Public Library Summer Reading Program

Over 5,000 children and teens participated in the 2007 Salem Public Library Summer Reading Club by keeping track of the time they spent reading or listening to books. For each hour accumulated, children and teens received either a “book buck” to buy their prize in the Summer Reading Club store, or a raffle ticket to try for one of the many prizes donated by the sponsors. Salem area students read nearly 100,000 hours this summer! These Myers students read 420 hours this summer!
This is a list of children from Myers School who completed the Summer Reading Club goal of 10 hours or more. Jakob B., Rachel B., Ben B., Laceabeth C., Caitlin C.,Keely C., Drew D., Ryan D., Tristen D., Airikha, F., Hayley F., Andrew G., Timothy G., Svetlana G., Ashten G., Cede H., Emma H., India H., Elizabeth H., Hannah J., Allyson J., Emma K., Nate K., Dennis L., Joshua L., Jena L., Peter M., Mackenzie M., Jessica M., Keiara M., Sierra M., Alondra P., Dennis P., Meredith P., Amy R., Jason R., Dylan S., Erin S., Matt S., Emily S., Grace S., Hannah V.
When you see these students, please congratulate them.

Scholastic Book Fair

The book fair had a vast assortment of childrens' books. This was a great time to pick up gifts for the holidays, Salem Battle of the Book titles, the Oregon Battle of the Book titles. Teachers always appreciate a new book for your child's classroom as well.

This year you can (still) put together a Wish List online. Just go to Scholastic Book Fair choose your titles, print your list, and send it to school. We will cheerfully fill your requests from the fair. Remember last day for the fair is Friday, September 28.

We also had a barbeque with lots of hot dogs and hamburgers ("There's zillions and zillions of them!" said one 8-year old). Kids also had the chance to meet Clifford, the Big Red Dog (Thanks, Jay O!).
