Short Week! Happy Thanksgiving!

It's a short week, but we're still doing important work.   Some families have parent/teacher conferences this evening.   A group of parents will meet in the lobby today, Tuesday, Nov. 24, to share/organize a boosters group for basketball.  

go, go, go LIONS!

Several things will be happening as soon as we return from our Thanksgiving Break:

Monday, November 30--PICTURE RETAKES:   Anyone interested in retakes should bring their original Lifetouch picture package to school on Monday.  If there are any changes to be made, be sure to make note of that.  Otherwise, the photographer will expect that you want the same package.   If your child was absent on the first picture day, you should plan that they will have their photo taken on Monday also.  

Thursday, December 3--PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES:  More conferences are held on this date.  If for some reason you have not taken the opportunity to sign up for a conference, we encourage you to do so now.   Look for your child(ren)'s teacher on the following link to schedule a time.   CONFERENCE SIGNUPS
