Perseverance: commitment, hard work, patience, and endurance
"It always seems impossible until it's done." Nelson Mandela
Announcements for this Week:
Our school fundraiser will begin next week! Please be on the lookout for information going home. This is our one fundraiser a year which helps us to get needed upgrades and supplies for our school! Students can earn fun prizes just for participating!
We will be doing flag ceremony this week! All students are welcome to participate if they want to. Students need to be at school before 8 AM to be able to participate so they can practice. If you choose to attend to watch your child, please send me an email the day before so I can plan to have your child participate that day! Please be mindful that we want as many students to participate, so even if you come every day, your child may not be able to participate every day.
Our Boo Bash at Peter Piper is this Thursday! The costume contest is at 6 PM- please remember no costumes may be worn at school on this day or the day of fall parties.
Fall party sign up information will be going home later this week! Please check your emails for more information.
