News of the Week
January 9-13
Important Reminders!
We had a great week of learning here in kindergarten! It was nice to have a full week together, but I am sure the kids will be worn out!
In Friday Folders...
- Report Cards... are coming home today! Please read the enclosed letter explaining our kindergarten report card. Everything is yours to keep except the envelope- please sign the outside and return in on Monday; we will use it again at the end of the year. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about your child's progress. Conferences are in February, but we can certainly meet sooner.
- Our 100th Day of School is on this THURSDAY!!! Kids are invited to dress up like a 100-year old person. We had such a fun time with all the little grannies and grandpas last year!
- You will also find a 100th Day Collection Ziploc bag with your child's name on it. Please work with your child to brainstorm an item that you can fit 100 of in the bag. Have them count as you put them in the bag together!! Please send this in the by Thursday or sooner. We will share our collections on the 100th day.

All chaperones will need to prepay and then plan to meet us at the Heritage Center that morning.
