No School

Just a reminder that there is no school October 14th, 15th and 16th.  School will resume on Thursday, October 17th.

Concussion and Possession of a Weapon Forms

Some of you signed these forms at Open House.  If you did not –  these forms are being sent home in your student’s red folder.

The Concussion form needs to be on record here at school by October 17th or your student may not be able to participate in gym class or play on the playground.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Halloween Party

We will hear shortly from our room parents about our plans for a Halloween party – but yes it will involve a costume!  For your planning purposes please plan appropriate costumes that your student can easily put on over clothes.   Toy weapons (guns, swords) will not be allowed.   Thank you!

Read To Self

We are building our stamina!!!!!  We have made it to seven minutes of silent reading!

If your student has a special book (or books) from home that they would like to read and put in their book box at school they are more than welcome to bring them.  Please label the books with the student’s name.
