Happy Holidays and Happy 2008!
See you back on Monday, January 7th!
Holiday Party
Thanks to the people who donated money for our class pizza party and thank you to the parents who organized it and for Mrs. Wuenschel for picking up the pizza.
This worked out great!!!
*We will be bowling Thurs., 12/20 after lunch. Your child can bring money for snacks at the bowling alley, but it is optional.
*Finally, Friday, 12/21 is our Tivoli trip to see the private viewing of Polar Express. We will have pizza at 10:30 before we board the buses to see the movie (from 12:00-1:40). What FUN!
WANTED: Parents volunteers to help us tie skates. The dates we skate are 1/8/- 1/22. Any time and any class. Write a note to Ms. Stainman to let her know when you are available.
Thanks!
FORGOTTEN LUNCHES: Starting in January, 2008 students who do not have a lunch ticket or money will be able to borrow from the office providing there is not an outstanding balance due for lunch tickets. If your child forgets his/her hot lunch ticket or has used them all, he/she may bring $2.25 to school and purchase a ticket that day from the office staff. Students must have exact change to purchase a ticket; no change will be given. If a child has no lunch, no money and the parent cannot be contacted, he/she may borrow from school office, but only twice per trimester. Students will no longer be able to borrow lunch tickets from the lunchroom staff.
