News From Room 106
February 2, 2024
Families,
It has been nice to finally get back in a routine with having school in session more than one day in a row at a time!
We will be having our Valentine's Day Party on Valentine's Day, February 14th. We are asking for a $2 donation to help offset the costs for an ice cream sundae bar. You can find our class list below, along with directions on Valentine's Boxes. A hard copy of both has also been sent home. Please let me know if your student needs an additional copy.
If your child needs assistance in getting Valentine's to pass out, please let me know and we will be able to get some for them!
Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held during the first week of March. They will be on March 6 and 7. Please look for sign ups coming home within a few weeks.
Have a great weekend!
