Birthdays at STM

If you wish to provide class refreshments on the occasion of your child’s birthday, please submit a birthday book request at least a week in advance to make a mutually convenient plan. Refreshments must be limited to: an individual serving of prepared treats (such as cupcake, cookie, doughnut) and a self-serve beverage. Parents should not attend the party unless specifically requested by the teacher. Refreshments should be dropped off to the office at the time specified by the teacher.

Birthday Books

If you are planning to bring treats to celebrate your child’s birthday, you are required to purchase a “Birthday Book” for our school library. Each book that you purchase from the school will have a book plate placed in the front of the book indicating that the book was donated by your child. The students in your child’s class will have the first opportunity to enjoy the selection before it is added to the school library. This book represents your family’s lasting appreciation to the school, as well as honoring your child’s birthday. Books are pre-selected by the teacher to provide a well-rounded class library regarding subject matter and grade appropriateness.
