Florence Fox News

Dear Florence Parents/Guardians:

We have had such an amazing first quarter of the school year! It is hard to believe that Fall is here and it's already October.

October brings parent teacher conferences along with our Halloween parade and party tradition. We look forward to seeing you at both events.

As the days get cooler, please send a light jacket with your child for outdoor recess. We will continue going outside as much as possible until the cold of winter. Releasing some energy outdoors is a great thing!

If you ever have any questions of concerns, feel free to call or email me. Thank you for your continued partnership in education!

Sincerely,

Jodie Lenser

Principal
