Our thanks to you all for your compassionate and helpful responses as we reached out to you  this past week. Your support will help the school weather these hard times. Remember: Dragonfly School is tax exempt as a 501(c)(3) organization; any financial contribution beyond your tuition is tax-deductible.
It has been a good week for communication; we also much appreciated being able to sit together with you on Thursday and Friday to connect and rejoice about your children. We are truly impressed by the community we have created together here at Dragonfly.
As we move toward our goals as a school, we are happy to announce that a $1,000 grant has been awarded to Dragonfly School in order for our Saplings class to study the use of energy by ancient New Mexican peoples! Great work on the part of our teacher, Molly Brooks, and grant-writer, Karen Menetrey, who made this funding happen.
If you lost your Toyota key with fingernail clippers attached in our parking lot recently, it is waiting for you in the office.
DATES TO LOOK OUT FOR:
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28: GUEST ARCHEOLOGIST will visit the Saplings class.
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 10-12: HALLOWEEN PARTY-We will celebrate by wearing our costumes as we decorate pumpkins, paint  faces and play games. The parade will begin at 10:00. Please let your teacher know if you will be attending. We will again sponsor trick-or-treat for UNICEF; if you will be taking your child out on Halloween night, please bring along this little orange box to solicit change for this worthy cause. Trick-or-Treat boxes are available in your classroom.
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 10-12: WHEEL-A-THON RESCHEDULED-We were sorry to see the first snowy day arrive with our scheduled event, but it was precipitation much needed, so we have gladly rescheduled. This also gives us a bit more time to solicit pledges. Please ask friends and family to support your child’s ride. Thank you!
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6: SAPLINGS AND BUDS FIELD TRIP TO THE RIO GRANDE ZOO in Albuquerque. They will need drivers and chaperones in order for this trip to happen. Please sign up with your teacher.
