Thank you for donating can food items for the Food Bank on Spirit Day! You received a weekly progress report in your child’s folder on Friday. Please sign it and return it on Monday. Just a reminder, please check your child’s folder daily and take out the papers.

It is hard to believe midterm for this quarter is on Wednesday. The last day of the quarter is Friday, October 16^th. I will send home a list of skills your child will be assessed on for first quarter . Your child will need to know their home phone number or one parent’s cell phone number and address. It would be helpful if you would help your child learn these two skills. Your child will be assessed on tying shoes at the end of the school year.

I will send all the towels home on Monday. I meant to send the towels home on Friday, but time got away from me. No need to return the towels to school. As you know, there was child with nits (lice eggs) in our class. Please check your child’s head closely today. The classroom has been treated.
