Week 9, Quarter 2

This week we are just wrapping everything up! 

Here is a reminder of what we will be doing on Thursday, December 22nd.

Just a quick reminder about tomorrow. We are going to the movies and either watching "Sing" or "Moana," both movies are PG. Please send your child in with $5. We ask that you not send in more than $5 as they will each be getting a small drink and small popcorn only. We will leave at 9 and return when the movie is over.

Secret Santa gift exchange will be tomorrow as well. This is a small item with a $5 limit. Your child should have come home with the name of who they drew and a list of 3 items. Please let me know if you have any questions.
 
Also, don't forget....The students will be allowed to wear anything "HOLIDAY"  (think ugly sweaters, Christmas shirts, red, green, gold, anything that makes you think HOLIDAY FUN)!  No pajamas! Dress code shoes.

​I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!​
