First Grade Star Gazette - week of November 2, 2009

Dear Parents,

Although quite busy, we had a great Red Ribbon Week. We made a class poster with wonderful views expressed by the 1st Grade Stars. On Friday afternoon, we celebrated with Halloween craft activities and a treat. At the end of the day, the entire school gathered in the Parish Hall to sing and dance to Our School Rocks Drug Free! The music was provided by our very own teachers! Everyone had a really cool time!
