turkey

Norm’s Uniform:

Norm’s Uniform will be at school on Monday, November 17 at 2:30-5:00 pm.  New Balance and Brook Shoes will also be here as well. 

Red Bucket:

All the students received a letter last week that explains the Red Bucket Food Drive.  Each family has been assigned a food item to donate.  We have a box in the classroom to keep our collections.  You are welcome to drop it off in the morning before school or send it to school with your child.  The $2 donation for the turkey can be sent to school in your child’s folder.  If there are any questions, please feel free to ask myself or Mrs. Wilroy (Harrison’s mom). 

Spirit Shirts:

Students will be able to wear their spirit shirts on Fridays with jeans. If you do not have a spirit shirt, you must wear your uniform.  Spirit shirts can still be ordered.  Order forms are available in the office.

Magazine Donations:

I will be collecting magazine donations for the classroom.  I would prefer non-fashion magazines such as parenting, gardening or home magazines.  I would like the students to make collages with magazine pictures.  Thank you!

Thanksgiving break:

Our Thanksgiving break will be from November 24-28.  Have a great Thanksgiving break!
