Week of Sept 23

Reminders:

1.  Please remember chapel dress is now on Tuesday.

2.  In first grade we are working on learning how to be responsible, especially in the morning.  The students are expected to take their own backpack over to their hook, and unpack it, and get ready for the day.  That being said, we strongly encourage parents if you would like to walk your child in to leave them at the door so that they can begin their day. If there is anything we can help you with please email us and we can schedule a time to meet. Thanks for helping our morning go smoothly!
