Fall Festival

We are in need of items for our Kindergarten Fall Festival Basket.  The theme of our basket is “Movie” and can be rental or for the movie theaters.  Please send items for us to put in our basket!  Movie tickets, gift certificates, candy, dvds, etc. 

Spelling Test

Starting on Monday, the students will have spelling words.  We will give the students the words on Monday and they will come home in your child’s daily folder.  Please be sure to practice these words throughout the week.  We will also be working on these words at school.  On Friday, we will give the spelling test. 

Parent/Teacher Conferences

We would like to thank all of the parents who came in to talk to us about your child.  If you were not able to have a parent/teacher conference, we would love to talk with you!  Please call or write a note letting us know you are interested in setting up a meeting.

Halloween Party

Our Halloween Party is quickly approaching.  We will call or send a note asking for volunteers to send items.  If we do not call you to help this party, we will call on you later in the year!  We appreciate your willingness to help.  Please feel free to join us for this party on Thursday, October 31^st from 1:30-2:30.

Costumes

Your child is able to wear their costume on Halloween Day, but please do not send any weapons and do not send your child with anything bloody or scary.  We will not allow any masks to be worn throughout the day.
