Baby It's Cold Outside!
Not just a song, but the truth! The student handbook states: "Children go outside for recess when the weather is dry and the temperature is 32-degrees or above unless a students is kept indoors by their teacher, or if a parent has sent in a note requesting indoor recess for medical reasons." PLEASE make sure your child has a coat and if necessary hat/gloves as we will be going out for recess daily.Upcoming Events:

4th Grade Dance: Again this year, the 4th grade is learning some special dances to entertain the student body on the last day before holiday break. Parents may attend. The dances are scheduled for 1:45 on December 18th and will take place in the gym.
Holiday Gift Exchange: 4th graders will have the opportunity to participate in a small gift exchange for our class parties. Essentially, they will be putting together goody bags that can be taken home after the party. Small items such as candy, pencils etc may be brought in to fill the bags of their classmates. Individual letters were sent home from each homeroom outlining more information and providing the number of students in their homerooms.
Holiday Parties - Homerooms will be having parties in the afternoon of December 18th. Due to limited space in the parking lot (and being able to clear the lot prior to dismissal) the office has asked that only those parents who are running the party attend.
