The Week of November 20th

Weekly Newsletter

PTA READ-A-THON 

Every student should have received information regarding the read-a-thon and an envelope to collect donations. If your student did not bring this info home please send me an email so I can send home another copy. Please consider having your student participate in this schoolwide event. It promotes literacy and helps to encourage nightly reading. ***Classes that have 100% participation (even if every student raises just $2) will be awarded a gift certificate for our book fair in December. Students that raise over $100 will recieve an idividual gift certificate to the book fair.

Harvest Feast

Room 21 will be celebrating the Season with a Harvest Feast on November 21, 2016. The students take such pride in and enjoy eating food that was prepared by them and their classmates. Thank you to all the families that signed up to send in items for the feast. ***ALL items should be sent in by 8am on Monday, November 21, so that students will have time to prepare the meal. Thank you.
