Citizenship means being a member of and supporting one’s community and country. This is the character trait our children will be focusing on in May.

The philosophy that citizens should work towards the betterment of their community through economic participation, public service, volunteer work, and other such efforts to improve life for all citizens.

Examples to share with your children:

·        Teach children that they have certain rights; including the right to good health care, education and the right to be safe and free.

·        Treat others with respect.  Be friendly to a new child.

·        Help clean up the halls, school and community.

·        Help get out the vote! Remember the budget vote is coming up!!!

·        Collect used toys and clothes for needy children.

·        Say "no" when a friend suggests that you take something that isn’t theirs or harm another child.

·        Follow school rules and the district’s code of conduct. 

     Wear a bike helmet and follow other bike safety rules.

·        Wait for the signal to cross the street and stay in the cross walk.

·        Do one last Spring into Service Project

Please discuss this character trait with your child. Show them different ways that they can display CITIZENSHIP both at school and home. Thank you!

The children, faculty and staff of the John G. Dinkelmeyer School in cooperation with the Association of Haitian American Physicians recently undertook a project to help the people of Haiti.  We asked the children, faculty and staff of Dinkelmeyer School to donate severely needed medical supplies and personal items.

 I am pleased to announce that several doctors will be visiting Dinkelmeyer on April 23^rd.  They will pick up the collected supplies and give a Presentation about Haiti, the earthquake and how the medical supplies we’ve collected will be of great assistance to many families devastated by the earthquake. The medical supplies and personal items we collected will then travel with the doctors and go directly to the people of Haiti. 

Working Together for Haiti is one of our school wide Spring into Service projects.  Please bring your children with you to purchase these desperately needed items and they can earn a 1 hour service ticket and contribute to our global community at the same time.

Each grade level is asked to participate in the donation by collecting the items indicated below, but if you’d like to contribute something in addition to what your grade level is assigned, please feel free to do so.

Grade K:          Toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, deodorant
