Gingerbread Houses!

We will be creating Gingerbread Houses on Thursday, December 12th. I am looking for candy donations for this project. In the past, we have used licorice, gumdrops, M&Ms, mini Hershey's Kisses, mini marshmallows, pretzels (rods & windows), mini candy canes, etc. If you would be willing to provide candy for this project, please send it in by Wednesday, December 11th. I will provide the graham crackers and frosting.  Volunteer Sign-ups to join your first grader for this fun project will take place at VolunteerSpot.  Please visit the link in the toolbar above to sign up.  Thank you!

Items Needed...

If you have paper towel rolls or cotton balls that you could donate, we would greatly appreciate it!  If possible, please send them in by next Thursday, December 12th!  Thank you!

Early Dismissal Days Next Week!

Next Monday and Tuesday, November 18th and 19th will be early dismissal days.  Your children will leave at noon.  Bag lunches are available if your child needs one.  Please send in a note if your child will be eating at home.  Thank you!

Winter weather has arrived!

First graders go out each day snow or shine!  Please remember to dress your child appropriately and send in the proper winter clothing- hat, gloves/mittens, scarf, boots, etc.  Thank you!

Parade cancelled :(

Sadly the parade at 1:00 has been cancelled:(  If you need to drop off anything, please do so by noon.  Thank you.

Halloween Parade

We are hopeful that the weather will not be what is forecast for tomorrow.  However wind and rain are in our future.  In the event of rain, the parade will be canceled.  A decision will be made by 10:00 tomorrow morning and posted on the school website.  In the event that the parade is canceled, we will have a small celebration at school.  Due the the volume of families, parents will not be invited.  I am sorry in advance.  Please check the school web address, or this blog to see what decision has been made.  Thank you.
