Principal's Message
Clairmont Bulldog Families,
I am thrilled to announce that our monthly Friday Flag Salutes will be returning! Our first one is scheduled on Friday, October 25th at 8:00am. We will have many fun and exciting things coming up, I encourage you to read thoroughly through the information in the weekly newsletter as well as any flyers that may come home.
We will have our fall parade on October 31st during the school day. Students are able to wear costumes if they would like, however, they cannot wear anything horrifying, cover their faces with masks, nor have handheld accessories. We are asking for donations of $3 to assist in purchasing candy to hand out to the students. We are very thankful to those of you who have already donated, it is much appreciated. Candy donations should be given to the school no later than October 28th, to allow time for purchasing and sorting of candy.
Best,
Ms. Shorter
