Gooooood Evening Marlow Families!!!
I hope everyone had a spectacular weekend! The Fall colors are really starting to shine, and this time of year is a just a testament to how beautiful this place is that we call home. ENJOY!!
Highlights from last week include 3rd graders getting their very own dictionary from the Rotary Club of Hendersonville, and a very spirited PINK OUT on Friday. It was so incredible to see our school come together like that, showing support for our loved ones both inside and outside of school. #MarlowFamily #NoOneFightsAlone

November is National Veterans Month, and we want to celebrate and honor our Marlow Family Veterans during this time. Thank you for your service and dedication to our country!
It's a bird. It's a plane. NO - IT'S LOST AND FOUND!!!
With these chilly mornings and warm afternoons, our Lost and Found is growing exponentially!!
We ask students frequently to please make sure that they are keeping track of their jackets, sweat shirts, hats, water bottles, and everything in between during the course of the day.
Parents - Best practice is to be sure that your child's name is written somewhere inside the clothing.
Parents are free to come anytime to look through our Lost and Found, located by the Gym entrance. Thanks so much for your help.

School Lunch
We also enjoy having our parents, grandparents, and younger siblings come and join us for lunch. Whether it be a special occasion or just a time to come and enjoy lunch with your child, please remember that we do not allow parents to bring in outside food from local or chain restaurants into the cafeteria to give their child. Instead, we encourage you to buy lunch at school with your child and enjoy it with them.
In advance, thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Morning and Afternoon Reminders
**TRANSPORTATION CHANGES** - Parents - Please be sure that you are notifying your child's HR teacher if there are any PM transportation changes. If a change must happen during the school day, we ask that you call the office (before 2pm if possible) to ensure that we get the message to both the teacher and student.
Do not use the Class DoJo app (or any other Social Media app) to make a transportation changes for your child. Please call the office, and we will see students get to the proper method home.
**FOR BOTH THE AM / PM (..on Butler Bridge Road)** - We would like to ask our Marlow families please be "good neighbors" to Aletheia Academy Childcare next door and leave their entrance "unblocked" during drop-off and pick-up. This will allow their families, staff, and any emergency vehicles, if ever needed, access in and out of their center. They will appreciate this kind and thoughtful courtesy very much. Thank you!
**FOR PM CAR RIDERS** - Parents - Please be sure you have the neon green car rider signs displayed in your windshield when picking up students...(You are doing a great job of this!)
Also, please stay in your car, or next to your car, when students are dismissed to walk. We promise, we will get them to the right car, and if we have parents wondering the parking lot and sidewalk, it can create a safety issue. Thank you for your help with this.
