Week of 12/12

Dear Parents,

We have made it to the last full week before Christmas break. Where is the time going?! There is a lot going on the next two weeks. Here are your reminders:

- Report cards will be sent home Tuesday. Please sign the envelope and send it back. The report card can stay at home.

- The K-4 Christmas Show will be Wednesday night at 7:00pm in the Church. Please have your child in the Parish Center no later than 6:40pm. They are to dress in their "Christmas Best." Please no jeans or sneakers.

- Our bowling field trip permission form and money should be turned in by Friday, December 16th. If you would like to chaperone please email me or send me in a note. I will be picking 4 names out of a hat on Thursday. Please remember you must have all clearances to chaperone.

- If you are Mystery Reader, please refrain from bringing in treats for the kids. Due to allergies, the only time we can have treats brought in is for birthdays and holiday parties.

- We will have the spelling and reading tests this Friday.
