Weekly Update 12/16/13

The most important update this week is our Holiday Program. Second and third graders will be performing on Thursday at 1:30. Please send students to school dressed nicely on Thursday. I hope to see you all there!

We will have a classroom celebration on Friday afternoon. I'm going to let the students decide how they want to celebrate with a vote today.

Hello Third Grade Families,

It is a busy and fun time of year! The district policy on cold weather is zero degrees which takes in account wind chill. Please send your students prepared for recess with boots, snowpants, jackets, gloves, and hats. If you need any of these items, contact Amy in the FRC.
