Have you ever wondered...what causes inversion conditions in the Utah valleys? As high pressure builds into the area, the mid-atmosphere warms, while the valleys stay cool. This warm air acts like a lid that traps pollution from a variety of sources in the valleys. Expect inversion conditions to remain across the area through the next 7 to 10 days. More info is in the graphic.

We wanted to invite everyone to Bates Elementary's Holiday Choir performance on Thursday, December 7, 2017 in the Weber High School Auditorium at 6:30 pm. Mrs. Hoxer, Mrs. Mann and the children have been working hard so you can look forward to a wonderful show!

All students in the show, please arrive at Weber High by 6:00pm.

Please come join us!

December 4th-8th, we will be collecting donations to help buy Christmas presents for students at our school who need help this holiday season.

We would like to encourage all families who are able to donate as generously as possible to help families at our school in need.

Peer Leaders will be coming to each class everyday next week to collect donations.

Friday, December 8th, will be dollars for donuts day.
Each student will get one little donut for each dollar donated, and a pack of donuts for each $5 donated.

Mayor Brent Taylor wrote a note about new things happening in the City.

We hoped you enjoyed the Thanksgiving Break and time with family. This Wednesday, November 29th any student who brings 5 box tops or more to school may wear crazy socks that day. Look around your house or ask your relatives for box tops, we would like to collect as many as we can. 

Sincerely,

We had a parent come in today whose son lost a blue FCEXtreme Winter Jacket from Costco.  There is the exact same jacket in the lost and found at Bates but it is a size too small.  If you have a child with this same jacket, would you mind checking to see if the name "Trudgen" and a size 8 is on the inside of the jacket?  And if you haven't already, label all of your children's jackets with their names to help if this situation arises again.  

Thank you!!

Sincerely,

Ms. Wright

Also, next week will be a short week with school only being held on Monday and Tuesday for Thanksgiving break. School will resume on Monday, November 27. If you are aware of any absences your child will be having next week, please notify the office so we can mark it and avoid a phone call.

Thank you for all you do and have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
