Next Week

Monday, October 31st is Spirit Day. Students may bring $1 and wear their Halloween costume. No blood, props, or hair dye!

Report Cards go home on Tuesday, November 1st. Please remember to sign and return the envelope...

Parent/Teacher Conferences are next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I am sure hoping for 100% turnout! It is always nice to touch-base and discuss how your child is doing in 4th grade.

Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday are early out days. Students will be dismissed at 12:00 on these days. However, we will be doing our normal morning routine (book clubs, new spelling list, etc.).
