Thanksgiving Lunch
On Thursday,
November 20th, the cafeteria will serve a Thanksgiving lunch
to students who opt for a school lunch. You are invited to join us for
lunch that day. The cost of an adult meal is $2.75 and must be paid in
cash. Also, due to the number of visitors expected our lunch time has
changed slightly. We will be at lunch from 12:15 12:40 that day.
Writes Upon Request
Students have been
busy preparing for our next Writes Upon Request which will be
administered on Wednesday, November 19th. Please encourage
your child to read the prompt carefully and to remember to add details
to his/her writing. Several parents have asked about practice prompts. I
have included a couple on the back of this newsletter to be used at your
discretion or not at all. I do not expect practice essays to be turned
in.
Fall Festival
I hope to see many
of you at the Fall Festival next Friday. Our class is in charge of the
marble painting booth. Angie Pichard is in charge of our booth and would
probably love to have more volunteers. She is also asking for donations
of supplies or funds for supplies. You may contact her at 443-3944.
