Valentines Exchange:
For all those students who would like to participate, we are having a small Valentines Exchange in the afternoon of Wednesday, February 12th. There are 22 students in the class and for ease of exchange if students can write Dear Friend... and who it is from, that would be greatly appreciated. Please ensure that if you are participating in this exchange, that your child bring a Valentine for each student in the class.


Box of Cool Cards campaign:
One sample box has been issued to each family through their oldest child at the school. Please use this to showcase to friends and family to collect orders for additional boxes.  Order forms and money are due Feb 20. 

Report Card Envelope Return:

By now you will have received your child’s report card. Please take the time to read it, then sign the envelope to show you have reviewed it and return the envelope to the school. The same envelope will be used to sent your child’s last report card home in June.
