Week of February 27 - March 3, 2017
Little Rockets News!
Dear Families,
This week we will celebrate Dr. Seuss! On Wednesday it is Wacky Wednesday! Wear your clothes in a crazy way, do something fun with you hair, or wear some crazy socks. On Thursday it will be RED and WHITE day! Each child will also get a special treat for snack on Thursday sponsored by the PTO!
Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
Have a great week!
Ms. Stacie Nelson, Principal
Please mark your calendars!

We hope that you will join us in continuing to help our PTO provide fun activities for our students!
