A Few Reminders....
- A large envelope of important documents was sent home with your child on Monday. If you would like to make lunch restrictions on your child's account, you will need to indicate your wishes on the lunch sheet that was included in the envelope.
- Please send a snack with your child each day. We keep snacks on hand for those who forget or need a little extra.
- We need MORE bulk snacks! Because many students did not bring snacks this week, we have used most of the donations already!
- Don't forget to send or email your parent homework assignment introducing your child...we would like these by Monday please!
- iPad exchange is Tuesday. Please make sure your child brings his/her iPad AND CHARGER to school MONDAY. These will be collected Monday and new iPads assigned Tuesday.
- We need blue or black ball point pens! The click to retract with grip are preferred. Students will use these to write in their journals daily. If you can purchase a pack to donate, we will have enough to keep the kids in ink all year!
