Please donate new or used holiday greeting cards for our upcoming project!

We are also looking for a couple of parents who would be willing to help us prep the materials for our project.  Please let us know if you are interested in helping with this.

Thank you for all that you do for your children!

Dear Parents,

Thank you for attending Parent-Teacher Conferences!  I know it can be difficult to fit these meeting into your busy lives and work schedules, but I do believe our time together is very important.  If you have not yet met with me please contact me via email to schedule a time for a conversation regarding your child’s success so far.

 

Thanks again!

The Fall Festival was a great success!  Ms. Reed and I saw many second grade families when they stopped to play our game.  Between the two of us, we earned $322 dollars for our classrooms.  We want to again thank all of the wonderful families who were able to contribute candy and/or time for our Fall Festival.  We could not do all that we do without you!  Thank you so much!

Book Club order forms will be sent home at the end of each month.  The first one was sent home on Monday of this week and it is due back on Friday, September 30th.  Please be sure to include your payment for books you wish to order.  If you are writing a check, please make it out to:  Scholastic Book Clubs.

Every time you order books for your child from these book orders our class earns points that can be used to order more books for the classroom!  This helps our teacher build a bigger classroom library.

Also, if you place your order online, using the code listed on the Parent Letter, our class automatically earns a free book, in addition to the points for every dollar spent!

Please order books and help our class!
