1 week left until Christmas break!!

This last few months have flown by! Things are winding down for Christmas break but I am still missing a few assignments from students. Please ensure these get done so that we can have fun the last few days of school!
On Tuesday, December 18th K-5 will be having their Christmas concert in the afternoon at 1:15 and then again in the evening at 7:00. Parents are welcome to come to the afternoon performance.
Thursday, December 20th we will have a movie afternoon in the classroom. Students are asked to bring any movies they think the class would enjoy. These movies must be school appropriate and the class will vote on one to watch. There will also me an assembly at 3:00 on Thursday in the gym
Friday is the last day of school before the break. Students will be dismissed at 2:30 on that day. Friday is pajama day as well as a movie in the gym. In the afternoon if time permits we will be playing board games in the classroom. Students can bring board games from home but there are also some in the classroom to enjoy.
Students can bring snacks for the movie afternoon on the 20th as well as in the afternoon of the 21st if they would like. Please do not bring pop to school.
