Pictures
If you want to order pictures and haven't yet, you have until Saturday. After that you will not be able to order until you get the proofs back in a few weeks and then you will have a shipping fee since it will be sent right to your house instead of the school.
If you have already ordered pictures or will do so by Saturday then your pictures will get delivered to school in the next 3 weeks and we will send them home with your student.
Picture retake day is Monday, November 4th.
Halloween
As a school, we will be doing a Halloween parade at 2:45 on Thursday, October 31st. Parents are welcome to come and watch the parade from the gym and the hallway near the office. If you are taking your student home after that, you will need to sign them out in the office. Please do NOT go down to your student's class.
Each class will be doing their own thing for any other Halloween fun. Watch for your students classroom newsletter for any information about other classroom activities.
