Hi Parents,
Well, it certainly felt strange to be here for 5 whole days this week! We are dragging a bit today, but we made it! The weekend never looked so good! :)
100th Day Celebration:
The 100th day of school is Monday! Please remember students are invited to dress as a 100 year old boy or girl, or to make and wear a special 100th day shirt decorated with 100 items. It's going to be a fun day!
Valentine's Day Party:
One final reminder...our Valentine's Day party is Thursday, February 14th from 1:30-2:15 pm in our classroom. All families are welcome to attend. I sent home a food menu in yesterday's Thursday folder; please contact me if you have any questions / concerns with the menu. If your child is exchanging Valentines with classmates, you may send your child's Valentine cards at any time.
Kindergarten Playground Fundraiser:
The Kindergarten classes are holding a golf fundraiser to raise funds for a new Kindergarten playground. The Kindergarten team asked us to pass along the following message, which I am copying and pasting from their email:
Have a great weekend! We are headed to an "after the Holidays" party for my husband's company, just as I fit into my pants again! Hahaha!! I'll see many of you on Thursday at our Valentine's Day party.
