Christmas Party Notes


Christmas party notes were sent home today in your child's gold folder. I'm sorry for the delay in getting these out. We had the flu go through our family last week, and I was absent for two days because of it.

The party is this Friday, set up begins at 1:45, and I am hoping that we can be finished with the party and clean-up by 2:50. If you would like to help, but haven't sent me a note, please do so as soon as possible. The only requirement for parent helpers is that you must have a background check on file in the office. Also, no younger siblings at the party please.

Remember, there is NO gift exchange among the students this year.
