Happy Sunday, Chameleon Families!
We had another great week at Carpenter! We had our second and final 1st Quarter Pep Rally, and awarded the first Chameleon's Tail to Track 4 winners- Ms. Lunsford's Kindergarten class and Ms. Perota's 5th grade class. They were definitely excited classes! Remember- every Friday is green and yellow- Carpenter spirit day! Today starts the month-long celebration of Hispanic Heritage. Classes are making posters of different countries, learning daily facts, saying the Carpenter Pledge in Spanish, and having a Spirit Week. See below for details on Spirit Week- September 23-27.
Don't forget Picture Day for Tracks 3 and 4 is this Wednesday.
