Happy Halloween!<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dear Families,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope this message finds you dry and warm and spending time with your loved ones. I wanted to take a moment to thank you all so much for all the beautiful messages and support you have given my family and my son Ben as we adapt to our new day to day life. I am so grateful for the Duvall community and my wonderful students. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Ben went back to school and sports a lot faster than I was ready for, but we are bravely putting one foot in front of the other because it is important \ud83d\ude42 I wanted to inform you that I will be at an education class tomorrow with the endocrinologist but everything is alright and I will be back as usual on Tuesday! Looking forward to a wonderful week. Here is what you need to know. If there are any changes or additions to our post I will make them as soon as they arise. Have a wonderful week and Happy Halloween! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important Dates<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday: Half Day for students with an 11:45am dismissal. Though we will not have lunch on Friday students are welcome to bring a small snack \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thursday October 31st is Halloween! You child may bring a costume to school in a bag (with their name labeled on it) to change into when we begin our class activities. The principal has asked for students to please have them wear their usual school clothes in the morning. Thursday mornings we have gym class! We will have stations beginning at 1:30pm and a school-wide parade at 2:00pm. Parents welcome at 1:30pm to join in the fun! I have set up a sign up genius below for any families wishing to donate supplies for the party. No pressure of course \ud83d\ude42 Any missing items Mrs. Ross will be sure to purchase. Students can bring in an individually packaged treat to share with their friends. We have 21 students and I am working on a “Safe Treat List” of options that will be ok to bring in and share with ALL our students \ud83d\ude42 These items will be egg free, nut free and made in peanut\/tree nut free facilities. Thank you all so very much in advance for your generosity and help to make our Halloween Party safe and amazing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
