Dear Parents,
I really enjoyed meeting with so many of you at conferences last week. Thank
you for taking time out of your busy schedules to meet and discuss the great
strides your child is making.
Thanksgiving Baskets—Suggested items are: potatoes, gravy mix, canned
vegetables, olives, rolls, stuffing mix, jello, salad makings, fruit, fresh
pies, milk. Any gift you could send in will really bless a family!
**All School Thanksgiving feast—Tuesday, November 24th –Your child will need
to purchase a hot lunch ticket for this event (unless they already have one).
The cost of a hot lunch ticket is $2.75. Since the whole school will be
attending this event, it will take some time for all of us to get in and eat.
My half-day kids will need to be picked up (in the gym) sometime between
11:45 and noon.
Future Events--
****Saturday, December 5th—PANCAKE BREAKFAST FUNDRAISER @ APPLEBEE’S from 8-10

You are invited to enjoy an all-you-can eat pancake breakfast with sausage,
juice, & coffee for only $5.00! Tickets are available in the school office.
