Week of December 15th

Dear Parent/s,

Happy last full week before Christmas break! This week we will not begin a new story or have any tests. We will be doing lots of fun Christmas activities and end our week with our "Polar Express" party on Friday! Here are a few quick reminders:

- The kids such a wonderful job at last week's Christmas Concert! Check out the video above!

- Permission forms for the bowling trip were sent home today. Please have them in to me by Friday at the latest. Thank you to the chaperones who volunteered!

- Last week I gave the kids a letter to write to Santa. Please complete it and send it in tomorrow.

- The 5th-8th grade will be putting on the Christmas Tableau Wednesday night at 7:00pm. They do a fantastic job and all are welcome to join!

- We will be having a Service Day next Monday, December 22nd. We are asking that every child in the first grade donates a jar of spaghetti sauce so we can make casseroles and give them to Mercy Hospice. You may send it in any day this week. Thanks for your help :)

I think that it all! Now go get your last minute shopping done!
