Weekly Update for 11/16/15

"The ABC's of Thanksgiving"
     We are getting ready for our first play of the school year.  We will be performing, "The ABC's of Thanksgiving" on Wednesday, November 25th @ 10:15 in Room 109.  This is Mrs. Chappell's old classroom on the kindergarten hall.  You and your family are welcome to join us for our performance. Following our performance you are more than welcome to take your child for an early dismissal.  
     Your child should have brought home a copy of their line(s) for the play.  It is my goal for everyone to be able to say their lines from memory.  Please let me know if your children will not be in school on November 25th.
