Book Fair
Dear Parents and Families:
We’re excited to announce our upcoming fall Scholastic Book Fair. This event is an opportunity for students to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. After missing out on many beloved traditions, our fall Book Fair will be a familiar, welcome, and safe event for our students. It’s also a great time to purchase some holiday gifts as well. As always, all purchases benefit our school.

Saturday 12/4, 7-10am, is our annual Breakfast with Santa at Hometown Pizza in LaGrange! It is a PTA program run thanks to 5th grade helpers. Mark your calendars - more details to come!
Teacher & Staff Holiday gifts: looking for an affordable way to say thank you to your child(ren)'s teacher(s) and other staff in the building? Be part of our first annual Special Gift Giving where, for $5, you can help buy-in to a special spirit wear item that your teacher or staff person has selected. For every $5, your student's name will go in the box with the special gift. Teachers & staff will receive their gift on 12/13 so your child will get to see what they helped purchase before we all take a break for winter. Flyer will be sent home this week, keep an eye out!
If you are looking for other ways to give a little gift this holiday season, please reach out to Christina (christinakuehnel@aol.com) & Ashley (ashleyhendersonky@gmail.com) who can share with you the Favorite Things lists!
The Reflections Art Contest entries are incredible! The judging took place yesterday evening, artists will be notified if their artwork is moving on to the next level of competition before Thanksgiving. Thanks for encouraging your kiddos to bring their inner artist out!
