Dear Parents,
Tomorrow on Tuesday there will an assemby at 9:00 in which each class will have a turn singing a Christmas carol. Each student should be dressed in any combination of red, green or white clothes (but not jeans). This week ALL classes will be finishing their book report projects! Each section will be graded and listed on the SIS over the Christmas vacation. ANY STUDENT FROM 2ND, 3RD, OR 4TH WHO HAS NOT BROUGHT IN THEIR $.50 FOR THEIR REPORT COVER NEEDS TO BRING IT IN BY THIS WED. Third grade students need to bring in strong medium size plastic or fabric bags to pack up their books which will be stored away on Thursday for vacation. Let students know which books you want them to take home by then. On Friday all classes will have Lessons and Carols and Benediction in Church in the morning and will be having a party in the afternoon since we have a full day of school. I will be ordering pizza for third grade. Please have you child bring in $3.00 and bring in their own small juice containers. Students may also bring in any snacks, cookies, or Christmas candy they wish to share but not more than one bag. There will not be any quizzes this week.
