Hello!

Thank you to all who came out to our first Parent Meeting!  We will be sending home the parent survey that was handed out at the meeting for everyone to fill out.  We will be hosting several other meetings this year and we’d like to hear from you what information you need.  Whether it’s Guardianship, CMH, Social Security, Recreation Programs, etc.  We will be bringing in speakers to address the topics you need most help with.  Additionally, there is a place on the survey for you to ask specific questions about the transition program if necessary.  We understand that transition can be overwhelming and we want to provide the information you need and support you in any way we can.

Our sheet sale started this week!  The profits from this sale go directly to our class.  We use the funds to buy supplies, provide activities, pay for all students to attend the End of the Year/Graduation Celebration, etc.  Thank you in advance for your support!

On Halloween, we will be purchasing pizza for the students, and we will watch a movie in the afternoon.    They do not need to bring a lunch that day.  We will provide pizza and drinks.  Students may bring candy to pass out if they wish, but it is not required.  (So many have asked I thought I better mention it!) We will still be attending morning job sites and CBI sites.  Please no costumes.  Students may wear a Halloween t-shirt if they have one or Halloween colors if they wish.

November’s Weekend Activity is “On Your Own” – watch for information to come home soon.  Students must invite a friend from class (or more than one) and plan an activity for fun.  Several of our students are already cheering when I mention it in class – they are very excited!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS – Tori Gontarski, Susie Grandas and Munasar Sofyan – who all took our Healthy Lunch Program to heart  and have been bringing healthy lunches consistently!  Special mention to Andrew Hutchison who has improved his lunch significantly!    Thank you to the families for supporting our efforts in teaching the students healthy habits!
