From the Principals Greetings
Families! Welcome to Summit
Pointe Elementary 2012! Happy New Year! We hope the holiday break was a
wonderful time with family and friends.
Now we are all adjusting to the morning alarm clock and
re-establishing routines at home and at school. As we begin second
semester, I hope each family is able to reflect on first semester’s progress.
Throughout the Panther Post you will see numerous student accomplishments! The winter season is a
wonderful time to cuddle up with your child and read. Add a special touch
while reading together. Consider a cup of hot chocolate or hot cider. These
experiences, over time, become a tradition and will be passed on through your
own child. We have included a recipe
for you try with your family. Recipe suggestion from
the office staff: Hot Spiced Cider Ingredients ¼ cup packed brown sugar ½ teaspoon whole allspice 1 teaspoon whole cloves 1 cinnamon stick 1 pinch ground nutmeg 1 large orange, sliced 2 quarts apple cider Directions: There are a number of options to make this recipe.
One option is to place all ingredients in a crock-pot and let them simmer
most of the day. A quick method is to
place a filter in coffee basket, and fill with brown sugar, allspice, cloves,
cinnamon stick, nutmeg, and orange slices. Pour apple cider into coffee pot
where what usually goes. Brew and
serve hot. Thank you for your
continued support and commitment to Summit Pointe Elementary. We are lucky to
have such a wonderful school community! Sincerely, Dr. Heather Kenney,
