Harvest Fest

This year the children will be allowed to wear costumes for our school-wide, Harvest Fest on Friday, October 29th during school. Please make sure that all costumes fall within these guidelines: No goblins, witches, mask, or weapons.

Violations of these rules will result in a phone call home and a change of clothing into school uniform. There will be planned activities during class as well as safe trick or treating for your child at the end of the day. Please contact the front office if you have any questions.

Donations

We have purchased a NEW bookshelf for our classroom to accommodate our vastly growing library. However, now we have two shelves that are empty, so if you have gently used or new chapter books that are no longer being utilized in your home, that are age-appropriate we would gladly accept them.

We are also seeking gently used or new board games for our classroom for Fun Fridays.

If you have any of those items to donate, please send them to school with your child.
