Clarence and Jerry both went home to be with their Lord and Savior on Christmas Day. Clarence was one of our faithful bus drivers for numerous years, and Jerry served on various boards and committees. Both men were an integral part of SCS and have numerous family members that are part of our SCS family. Please keep the entire F r i en d , Haak, and Bosma families in your prayers at this time. WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS Snow route days, late starts, and/or school closures will be posted on the school website www.sunnysidechristianschool.org under the “Upcoming Events” heading.

Lock Down Drills: Students in the elementary building will be practicing lock down drills periodically throughout the school year. Our next practice drill will be tomorrow, January 10. Age appropriate explanations will be given to the students via the classroom teacher. We wanted parents to be aware that we will be practicing these drills so when kids come home you can be prepared to answer some questions. Please pray for safety for our students. High School Sports Broadcasts: Jeff Place will be broadcasting some of the Knight basketball games via his website. For a schedule and more information, please go to his website at www.jeffplace.com. Thinking of upgrading your camera this year? The High School Yearbook club is looking to purchase a gently used digital SLR camera. If you or someone you know has one they would be willing to sell, please contact Dawn Haak at [email protected] Asbestos Notification: The Sunnyside Christian Elementary Building has non-friable asbestos in the hallway tile and friable material in the multi-purpose room ceiling. The asbestos is being operated and maintained to insure the safety of the occupants. A complete management plan is available in the elementary office for public review.
