Thank you, Mr. Bills, for coming to our P2 assembly and talking to us about "integrity." He shared examples of how you feel good about yourself when you make good choices, even when nobody else is watching! In classes next week, we will discuss more about acting with integrity, being honest and being trustworthy.
Hopefully you received a flyer about our upcoming book fair. Our book fair will be open to families on Friday, October 18 and Monday, October 21 from 3:30 until 6:00 p.m. both days. Families have the option to visit either of those days. Additionally, students in grades 3, 4, 5 can go to the book fair with their classes on Friday. Students in grades K, 1, 2 can visit the book fair during the day on Monday, the 21st.
We are so lucky! A real live author is coming to our school! On Wednesday, Troy Cummings, author of The Notebook of Doom collection, will be coming to read to us at a special assembly. Thank you to our PTA for helping to make this happen.
Some children are already planning Halloween costumes and thinking about all of those yummy treats that go along with the tricks! You will receive a detailed letter about Halloween Day at school, so be on the lookout. Please know that in the name of school safety, we will not have an outdoor parade, and only the few parents who have already signed up to be room-parent volunteers will be permitted into the school. The brief in-school celebration and costuming is for our kids to have fun, all while maintaining a safe school environment. Heartfelt thanks to all of our families and community for your continued support.
There is no school on Monday, October 14, so we will see everyone on Tuesday! Enjoy the long, fall weekend.
