Dear Parents:
Recently, we have noticed an increase of fidget spinners at school which are causing disruptions in the classroom, office, lunch room and during recess. We are asking that these fidget spinners please stay at home.
If you have a doctor’s note that states your child requires a fidget spinner for educational purposes, please provide a copy of this note to your child’s teacher.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
Sincerely,
Lynn Sparks, Principal
