Book Fair 2015: November 12-19
If you are going to get anywhere in life, you have to read a lot of books. ~ Roald Dahl

Read the Book Fair Newsletter (you may also click the Smore link below) for complete details, which includes author line-ups, book order forms, event dates, etc.
Concert Choir Students: November 13 Performance at Family Night
The Concert Choir will be performing at Book Fair Family Night on Friday, November 13. Students in this group have a 5:15 pm call time in Mr. Toto's room. Students have free dress for the performance and are welcome to enjoy pizza after they sing at 6:00 pm. Thank you!
8th Grade Announcement: Veteran's Day
Veteran's Day is Wednesday, November 11. We will meet for morning prayer in school families (instead of by class). The Cub Scouts, led by Boy Scout Nico Manes, will be leading a presentation of the flag, and a veteran speaker will lead our prayers. Stars honoring veterans will be posted by the 8th graders on our Wall of Heroes in the gym.
On Wednesday, November 11, we will allow students free dress - attire in red, white, and blue - but please be mindful that there is an Open House, so students and teachers should not be too casual in their attire.
We are hoping to celebrate Veteran's Day with all the honor and glory it deserves. Thank you to all those who have served our country.
