LOOKING AHEAD: I will be going to a School Improvement conference for two nights on November 20-22; so I will have a substitute on that Monday and Tuesday.  We may be having our Native American day rotations on the Tuesday morning.  I’m not sure how that is going to work yet. J  I will keep you posted.  I may need parent back up! Haha

COINS: This is the LAST WEEK to send in spare coins for kids! (I thought it was last weekbut it is THIS week) Mrs. Gentry from Pizza Hut will be coming in on THIS THURSDAY to collect the last of our coins!  Send in any spare change if you’d like before then!

HALLOWEEN:  October 31 we will celebrate Halloween by dressing up in the AFTERNOON.  Please DO NOT send your child to school in their Halloween costume.  Our morning will be a “normal” Monday morning. They may pack their costume in their backpack, and I will give them time after lunch recess to get into their costume.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE THE HALLOWEEN NOTE THAT I SENT HOME LAST WEEK!

STUDENT OF THE WEEK:  Our special student this week is Harmony Marcusse!  Harmony enjoys going to the waterpark, going out to eat, and playing outside.  Her favorite food is macaroni and cheese.  She is six years old and will turn seven on May 17th!  Harmony would like to learn how to ride a horse, and learn how to bake.  Her favorite book is the Bible.  J


MATH: Look for your child’s Math pretest and posttest to come home either tomorrow or Wednesday.  Remember the posttest is what counts! I do both so that I can see their growth. J
