Wow! The holiday break is almost here... and we have SO much to do!
Our Holiday concert (all of first grade) is set for next Tuesday, Dec. 15th at 2 PM in the school cafeteria. Your child can wear either holiday dress or jeans and a red shirt for the performance. We are looking for donations of small cookies and punch to serve after the performance. Please remember that the kids have P.E on Tuesdays and will also have lunch and a quick afternoon break so if you are worried about nice clothes getting dirty, you might want to think about arriving a few minutes early to help them change clothes.
Please help me and the other teachers who are doing testing and send in note or a quick email if your child is NOT going to be in school, especially between now and the last day of class which is Dec. 16th and it's a 1/2 day with NO lunch and NO afterschool. I want to make sure everybody can pick up their report card before the break.
Please make sure you have read all the "candy cane" supplemental newsletter that was attached to this week's regular newsletter. I'm encouraging all parents to make sure your child leaves jewelry (if it is big and clunky or expensive) and toys at home. We have had a big problem with toys being misplaced or brought out when we are trying to get work done.
As mentioned in the newsletter, there is NO spelling test this week.
Thanks for your help!! Mrs. C
