TURKEY BINGO!!!!

What an amazing night with the Manvel community, family, and friends!

So much FUN had by all! Thank you for all of the donations for the Raffle fundraiser for PTO/Wolf Ridge and for the classroom baskets!

In honor of our local veterans, we will be having a Veteran's Hero Parade on Tuesday, November 12th at 2:30 pm (see flyer below for details). In case of rain, we will ask Veterans to come inside the halls of the school so students can thank them for their service.

We have No School on Monday, November 11th, or Wednesday-Friday, November 27th-29th, for Thanksgiving break.

The last day of school for 2024 is Friday, December 20th for the Holiday Break.

Winter is right around the corner...please remind your child/children to bring their winter gear daily as the weather may change throughout the day. If you are a family in need of winter clothing, please reach out to me or our school office.

The school will send out winter weather and school updates on Remind and Facebook. You will also receive an email, text, and phone call with these updates. If you do not receive these messages please reach out to the school.

Remind, email, or a phone call is the best form of communication that is used by our entire staff. As parents if you have questions or concerns regarding your child we prefer you use Remind or email, rather than other social media platforms.(Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, etc) If you are not connected to classroom or school Remind please let the school know. If it is at the end of the day please call the office. Thank you for understanding!

November is the time of year to give thanks and show gratitude. At Manvel School we have so much to be thankful for. We have amazing students and families to support this great school. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the Manvel Team.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Blessings,

Mrs. Stevens, Principal
