Hello,
What an amazing turn out we had last night at the Fall Festival! I loved seeing so many of you and your kids. SaraJo was unable to make it but Marleen and I got to hang out and see and talk to many of you. Thank you to all who were able to come and support the school. And a special thanks to all where were able to help out with the booths and games.
What a fun week we had with SaraJo. She is settling in nicely with us and learning about the kids and working great with them. We spent every afternoon this week working on our book reports for conferences with the kids. SaraJo was a valuable help in this. She sat tirelessly with many of the students and helped them prepare and practice. Unfortunately she will not be able to attend conferences on Monday. She will be in Tennessee with her family, but she is looking forward to meeting those of you who will be coming Tuesday and Wednesday.
Don’t forget that Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are Parent Teacher Conferences. I am so excited to meet with all of you. These days are also early out days so plan for your child to be picked up at 1 p.m. The book fair will also be going on these three days. It will go from 1 to 6:30. We will not have school Thursday and Friday.
Our field trips are coming up. Please have the permission slip returned by this Tuesday. The spaces next to the two field trips need to be initialed by you. If you are attending the field trips and do not want to chaperone other children, please let me know.
Have a great weekend.
Jalee
