Please remember that there is no school from Monday, November 21st- Friday November 25th. You should have received a COVID test earlier in the week to administer on Sunday evening November 27th. Please note that testing is optional/not required to return however, doing so will ensure that we keep each other safe and healthy.
Thank you for making our Turkey Potluck a success! It was wonderful to see everyone there, enjoying the company of others. It has been several years since we have been able to enjoy the potluck together so I appreciate being able to spend Wednesday evening with many of you. A special thank you for the basket donations and organization of PFA in the raffle portion of the evening. There were fantastic raffle prizes! I would like to personally thank the local businesses that donated as well. Please be sure to support these local business. The list of the businesses are listed within this newsletter.
Just a friendly reminder the there are several jackets that have been left in the Lost and Found. Our Lost and Found is in the breezeway by the multi-purpose room. Please be sure to remind your child(ren) to check if their jackets or water bottles are there. If you would like to check the Lost and Found yourself, you may come after school and enter through the breezeway.

Attendance Matters!
If your child is not feeling well, you can check for a fever and/or check illness with a COVID test. If they are fever free or have a negative COVID test, please encourage your child to come to school. When students understand the importance of regular school attendance, they view school as important and will create healthy habits and expectations about school.
Please avoid scheduling doctor or dentist appointments during the school day as to not interrupt your child's learning. Keep in mind that family vacations during the school year, are unexecused absences. Together, we can help set your child up for success!
