Our weather is really changeable now; please be sure your child has appropriate clothing every day and be SURE there is a COMPLETE CHANGE of clothes on hand at school.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 12-COLUMBUS DAY-SCHOOL OPEN!

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 6-8PM-BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING. Everyone welcome. Childcare available with RSVP.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20-FOR SMALL HANDS CATALOG ORDERS DUE-We will be sending in a group order from the school since that earns us the most credit (15% of a group order over $500) towards some of the lovely materials they offer. Last year we earned some very nice items for our classrooms, and families raved about the quality of their purchases. You may return your individual order to your classroom by Tuesday, October 20th and we will place the order and have your items back to you in time for the holidays. The “For Small Hands” catalogs are available in your classroom.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 10-NOON-WHEEL-A-THON FUNDRAISER-Bring out your wheels–bikes, tricycles and skateboards– to travel the bike path along the river. Please help your child find sponsors who may pledge by the lap or a lump sum for participation. (Pledge sheet attached to the bottom of this email or available in your classroom). Get your bodies moving and keep the support coming! We couldn’t provide all we do without so much participation from our families and community. Thank you for all that you do!

THURSDAY & FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22 & 23-PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES. Sign up in your classroom. Childcare will be available during your individual conference.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30-HALLOWEEN PARTY during the morning hours. Children may wear costumes to enjoy games,crafts, a parade and non-sugar (yes, that’s right; no sugar) treats. Extra hands, ideas and cameras welcome! Please let your teacher know if you are available to help during the party!

THANK YOU!
