Thank you for coming in! ♥️

Next Week:

Tuesday: Picture Retake Day 📸
It would be helpful if you let me know 
with an email (if you haven't already) if your child 
is having their school picture taken again, thanks! ♥️

 Library book exchange.  If your child has returned their library book they can select another to take home.  They do not have Library this trimester, but will have an opportunity to take a new library book home every other week 
until the new trimester begins.

Wednesday: No School Veterans Day

If you wish to be a chaperone for a field trip at any point this year (or volunteer in the classroom), please be sure all your requirements are up to date - thank you! 💕


It would also be greatly appreciated if you could visit PowerSchool and check to be sure you have entered an emergency contact other than the parent information.  
We will always contact parents first, but really wish to have a separate contact when you can not be reached, thanks!
