See you on Sat!!

November 10th-Saturday will be our first Second Chance Volunteer Day! If you will be joining us, I will need you to email me (RSVP) with your choice of attending either the A Session (9-10:30) or the B Session (10:30-12). I will assign students to each session on a first respond basis. Be sure you have returned both permission slips. If you are a 6th grader, please ask parents to help chaperone. I do not need every parent every time, but will need a few extra sets of hands for each session for 6th graders participating.
