News From Physical Education
Welcome to Physical Education class:
To help your student get the most out of class, please send him/her with athletic shoes on their scheduled PE day. A water bottle will also help keep them hydrated when we are outside or when the wall closes and we no longer have access to a drinking fountain.
Here is my contact information for any needs, concerns, or if you just need to tell me something about your child to help make the year better!

Spencer T-shirt Order
The annual Spencer t-shirt order forms have been sent home on orange paper. Please check your child's folder and return your order to your teacher as soon as possible, but no later that Friday, September 21. If you have more than one child, you may submit one form and write one check. Don't forget adult t-shirts are available so grab one for yourself. It's perfect to wear when you volunteer at school and events!
Looking for Sponsors
We are looking for Roadrunner Run sponsors. The cost is $200 for your logo to appear on the back of the annual Spencer t-shirts. Contact Kristie Hopka at kristomich@hotmail.com if your company is interested in sponsoring.
