• For the Week of 12/16/24

      For Your Information - 
       * Winter Party - Our class winter party is scheduled for THIS Friday, December 20th, which will also be a PJ Day! Letter was sent home with details AND Room Parents have already reached out to families for class donations.
      * Book Exchange - Our class hopes to have a holiday book exchange, where books are wrapped with tag given. As of Friday, 1/2 of the students have brought in books.  If your child would like to partake in this activity, PLEASE send in a wrapped book with the tag. The hope is to have enough books so everyone goes home with a book. The Book Exchange Activity is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday or Thursday. If we don't get a significant amount turned in by Monday, we may have to forego the activity and books will be returned home.
      Themed Days this Week - See Mr. Heinle's email from either Thursday or Friday last week with details. Students can dress according to the theme/team-building.
      * Half Day - We have a 12:30pm dismissal this coming Friday, 12/20/24. No lunch will be served on this day.
