Week 13

November 13-17

Hello Parents and Students,

PTA

Art to Remember: Last week, you recieved a flyer with information about our Art to Remember fundraiser!  You can find your child's artwork by using the code on the flyer or searching by name. We are targeting orders to be placed by November 15th if you want the ship to school option (FREE shipping) or you can always have it shipped to your home. This is such a fun opportunity to  see your child's artwork on amazing products and/or get some beautiful gifts! 


See's Candy Fundraiser: Please look out for a flyer coming home this week with more information about our See's Candy fundraiser!

This week, students will have a chance to go to the Scholastic Book Fair at school! We will go as a class on Wednesday, November 15th at 9:30. Please set up an E-Wallet for your child HERE. The Book Fair will also be open to families on Tuesday right after school and on Thursday from 4:30-6:30.

House Shirt Form: Please see the Week 11 Newletter for more information about the house system at Tierra Linda. If you haven't already, please fill out this short form so your student receives the correct shirt size. These shirts are meant to last a couple years, so we recommend sizing up. Thank you!
