Camp Learn A Lot
January 18, 2016
Dear Parents,
Our Children's Museum field trip is this Thursday. Please let me know your child's lunch plans by answering this two question form by Tuesday. If I do not hear from you, I will assume your child will be buying a school sack lunch and school milk to take on the field trip.
I will be available two Saturdays in January to provide 25-minute parent-teacher conferences for those who are interested. To sign up for a conference, navigate to my sign up on Sign Up Genius and choose the day and time that works for you.
Please see below for important dates to add to your calendar.
As always,
We love . . .
We love . . .
