Students have received their next objective sheet, it is due for full credit on Friday, September 28. Students should plan to complete one objective a day to complete the sheet with ease and full credit.
Parent Needs:
If you have not yet donated a case of water for your child please do so as soon as possible, we use a lot of water this time of year. If you have not paid for your child’s class fee it is due. Please send money with your child to school or stop by the front office to take care of the cost between 7:30am-2:15pm.
We need 2-3 parents for homecoming in the morning of Friday, Sept. 21 please let me know if you can make it. Your help will be needed to hand out uniforms, water during the parade and collecting uniforms at the end of the assembly.
