Reminders!

There are a couple of quick things I wanted to remind everyone about.

We will be going on our first field trip on February 11th. We will be attending a Nate the Great play. Although the play is still a couple months away, the money for the tickets is due in December. Please send $8 to school with your child by December 4th. Permission slips will be going home closer to the date of the play.

Our Thanksgiving Feast will be on November 24th. All of the classes will contribute something to the feast and first grade is in charge of corn. Please send a can or two of corn to school with your child by Monday, November 23rd. Thank you so much for your help!

There will be no school on November 25th, 26th or 27th. I hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving break with your children.

We are getting into the season where a lot of children are getting sick. Please do not send your child to school if they have a fever or if they have been throwing up.

I have had a few people ask me about Halloween costumes. The children are not allowed to wear their costumes to school on Friday, October 30th. They can wear them to Harvest Fest on that evening if they would like.
