THE CRAIG SCHOOL

WEEKLY NEWSLETTER
Message from the Director

Dear Badger Families,

While some go into hibernation during these winter months, Badgers keep the good times rolling! 

Next Saturday, January 24th is our first ever Bowl-a-Rama! What could be better than a few hours of bowling, pizza, soda, and prizes! It is a great way to get out with family and friends and support our Craig community. The event will be held at Boonton Lanes starting at 11:30. Details are in this newsletter on how to register. I hope to see you there!

An email and sign-up link for Family STEM Night was sent home. It is a fun, exciting community event for the lower and middle school students, families, and faculty & staff held by our science department. The flier and registration are also in this weekly newsletter.

As we continue into the winter months, information about Friday Twilight Skiing will come out, and our annual Chili Cook-Off! There is always an event on the horizon to connect with the Craig community!

Enjoy the long weekend,

Jennifer Guthrie

Director of the Lower & Middle School
