Week of November 9-13, 2009

Have a great weekend! 

-The annual Pre-K/Kindergarten Thanksgiving feast will be held on Wednesday, November 18th at 6:00pm in the BIG school cafeteria.  I will be sending home a paper stating the food item that each family attending should prepare and bring to the feast as soon as I have a final head count.  I will also send home pans to put the food in the week of the feast.  We hope you can join us for this fun family affair!

-If you have not already done so, please return your child's pillow case for his/her sleeping bag.  Some of them did not return after they went home to be washed over the long weekend.  It makes storing much easier. 

 -Beginning in November, we are asking for any parents who would like to volunteer to help out at lunch, so that the teachers can have a much needed break to go over to the BIG school for lunch.  It does not have to be any set schedule.  Any day would be appreciated.  Let us know if you would like to help or have any questions.

-Please return the blue emergency closing papers that were sent home in the Tuesday communication packet from the BIG School.  These are necessary in the event of an emergency closing.

-Our student of the Week for this week is GRACE URBAN (pre-4)!!!!

-Please remember to pack your child any items he/she will need for lunch, including spoons, forks, straws, etc.

 -If anyone is interested in donating, we are in need of CLOROX/LYSOL cleaning wipes/spray to help keep preschool as germ free as possible during this flu season.
