Growing with STEM in Fourth Grade
News
Winter Break is just around the corner! Our holiday party will be on Friday, December 18th from 10:00-11:30 am.
There will be fun Minute to Win It holiday games, movies to watch, and delicious snacks for students. We will also be decorating cookies! We are asking that each child bring a certain food item to help make the day special. We will send home a letter with this information on Monday. Please send in your item by Wednesday, December 16th.
For lunch, students will have the option of bringing a lunch from home or purchasing a sack lunch from the cafeteria.
Remember, parents are always welcome to attend the party and share in the fun. If you know for sure that you’d like to attend and help out, please contact: Laurie Frantz lauriefrantz2002@yahoo.com (972)358-0399
