Doodle for Google

doodleDear Parents/Guardians,

Many of your children have brought home a “Doodle for Google” entry form for the Doodle for Google contest.  This competition encourages students to embrace their creativity and curiosity by designing their very own Google logo. The Google logo serves as a blank canvas on which young “doodlers” can  express their inspirations, interests, and ambitions around this year’s theme:  An invention that would make the world a better place.

In order for your child to participate, a signed entry form will need to be completed by a parent/legal guardian. The artwork and form both need to be returned to your child’s classroom teacher no later than Monday March 17th. No late artwork or signed entry forms will be accepted at Mcmillin after this date.

If you child did not receive an entry form and wants to participate in this contest they may come and see me in the library before school starts , or during recess

For more details you can go to www.google.com/doodle4google, or you can email me at sally.costello@cvesd.org

Thank You,

Sally Costello

You can look forward to speaking to your child’s teacher about their progress, as well as ways to support them at home. If you haven’t received notification from your teacher please contact them as soon as possible. You can also contact me directly at Jorge.mora@cvesd.org and I will help you arrange a time to speak to your child’s teacher. Take a look at this video to know how to prepare for the conference:
