Valentine's Day Parties
It's that time of year where we celebrate the season of love and care. Our parties will be held on Thursday, 2/14 and Friday, 2/15. During the party there will be games, a craft and snack. We have asked families for small donations if possible. In addition, we're looking for parent volunteers to help (contact your child's teacher if interested). While students are not required to bring in cards for their classmates, we ask that if they do bring them in, there is one for every child in the class. Please make sure that there is NO CANDY on the cards your child brings to school to ensure safety for all students, especially those with food allergies.
3rd and 4th grade Thursday, 2/14 from 2 - 3
5th grade Friday, 2/15 from 12:30 - 1:30
