Early Dismissal Wednesday Oct 30th @ 1:25 PM
NO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY NOV 1ST!
Message from Mrs Murray
No Halloween Costumes
Some classes may be doing Holiday or Fall parties this week. Not all classes or grades celebrate Halloween and do things separately in their rooms and your individual teachers will communicate with you. Schoolwide we DO NOT dress up for Halloween or bring/wear our costumes to school. It is distracting to the educational environment as well as kids loose parts of costumes and things can get lost, stolen, and ruined before Halloween. We hate to have that happen for your children before their fun night out Thursday. Please check with your individual classroom teachers for further questions about parties and activities.

If you want a retake, please return the entire packet of pictures you received and have your child give to the Photographer when the photo is taken. You will be sent a replacement packet at no additional charge (same package).

COLD WEATHER REMINDER!
Just a reminder that we will be having outdoor recess everyday UNLESS the temperature (including windchill) is below 0 F. This includes before and after school, so please make sure your child is dressed for the weather! Please label all clothing(hats, coats, boots, gloves) with your child's name.
If we plan to be inside before school, we will hang a FHS flag on the fence to signal that your child should proceed to the cafeteria entrance from the playground and proceed indoors.
Please be aware that even though we may be inside before school, we may go outside for regular recess as temperature permits- so make sure your child is dressed appropriately to go outside during the course of the day for recess.
