REMINDERS
1. Halloween Party- Oct. 31. The children may wear their costumes to school. They should still bring their bookbags, as there may be classes in the morning. I am asking that each child bring in something to share with the class. I will tell them on Tuesday what they can bring. Dismissal is at 2:30 on Halloween.
2. Book Test - Thursday, Oct. 30 on Babe. The children may make notes and use them during the test.
3. Please make sure that your child is prepared for school each day. Some children are coming to school with no pencils, looseleaf, notebooks, etc. Check the bookbag, folder, purple assignment book, and notebooks each day so you have a good idea what is going on with your school during the school day.
