Our holiday program is this week. For the holiday program your child can wear jeans and a holiday shirt if they have one. If not please have them wear their red uniform shirt if possible. It will be taking place on Tuesday at 2pm in the cafeteria. I hope to see you there! We expect it to last between 30 and 45 minutes with cookies and juice afterwards. Please feel free to take your child with you afterwards but please let me know they are leaving.

Report cards go home on Wednesday. This is a half day with no after school or lunch. Please arrange to have your child picked up promptly at 11:30. If your child will not be here on Wednesday and you would like your child's report card ahead of time please let me know by Tuesday morning. I will not be able to get report cards right after the holiday program because I will need to be in the cafeteria with the other students.

Spellingcity.com is a great website to use to practice spelling words. Go to spellingcity.com and at the tookbar on the top click on find a list. Type Jenna Cochran into the teacher box and our lists will come up. There are a lot of fun activities and games you can use to practice the words.

I hope you all have a wonderful break with your children! See you back at school on January 4th!
