- Nut Awareness: This week you sent a letter home that has a sentence in it that reads, "All types of celebratory/birthday treats are prohibited from being shared during lunch time." With that being said, parents are no longer permitted to bring in birthday treats to distribute at lunch time.
- Please make sure to look at your calendars as October will soon be here. Some changes from the typical include 10/15/15 being the last day of the grading period and records day in the afternoon. McDowell will release students at 1145 AM. This will not be the Halloween parade date. Hard to believe but the 15th will mark the end of the first grading period!
- The week of the 21st will be a dedicated JEANS WEEK. Here's the low down and don't tell Dani, so it can be proved she doesn't read mine and Deb's fabulous In the Loop ;). Kendra and her family asked that in lieu of flowers a memorial fund would be created via PayPal. So with a minimum donation of $10 collected this week in the office you can enjoy the simple pleasure of a great fitting pair of jeans as you mold the future of our world. I will make the donation to the account from our McDowell family ,on Friday the 18th of September.
- Below is a video that is a sweet story set in a horrific backdrop of 911. I hope you enjoy.
- If you have trouble opening the videos you need to unblock YouTube or watch it at home.
