A Note From Mrs. Hunter
Next week is the PTA Book Fair. If you want your child to purchase a book, please make sure you return the permission slip by the 9th of October and that your child has their Dragon band. Parent Volunteers will then be able to help students choose appropriate books and make sure that the correct amount of money is spent. We will be going to the book fair on Monday, October 9th.
The Halloween Carnival will be held at the school on Wednesday, October 25th at 5pm. Please note that the deadline to purchase tickets is Thursday, October 19th. An order form will be sent home next week. Tickets will not be sold after this date or at the door. This is a very popular event and many students will be in attendance. A parent must accompany their child. Nannies are welcome to attend, however, they cannot bring students to the Carnival on their own.
