- Hour of Code: Once a week for the month of December, we will be participating in a worldwide movement called Hour of Code. Our class will be getting an introduction to coding and computer science. This week our class used CodeMonkey.
- Toys and other fancy items from home: Before break, in the digital school newsletter that went home, Mr. Farrell asked students to refrain from bringing in toys and other distracting items (fancy watches, slap bracelets, etc). Please help your child remember this! Thank you.
- PTO online sign up - You can see the document on my website or via the hard copy in your child's folder. I encourage you to sign up so you can keep up-to-date with school happenings.
- Art to Remember orders - if you ordered something it is in your child's folder/bag today.
