Happy Friday, Families!

October is in full swing, bringing crisp fall weather, classroom routines in high gear, and plenty of exciting school traditions to look forward to this season!

Upcoming Events & Announcements:

  • Storybook Character Day (October 30th): As in years past, we are excited to celebrate Storybook Character Day at the end of the month! Students are welcome to come to school dressed as their favorite book character. For safety and school suitability, please ensure costumes do not include face coverings/masks or pretend weapons. We can't wait to see their creativity come to life!
  • PTA Read-a-Thon: We are thrilled to kick off our upcoming PTA-sponsored Read-a-Thon! It’s a wonderful opportunity to foster a love of reading while supporting our school community. Please check out the details in this week’s Thursday Folder for more information on how your child can participate and log their reading minutes.

Thank you for your ongoing partnership, support, and enthusiasm. Have a warm and restful autumn weekend! 

Together We Grow, 

Ms. Chianetta and Ms. Dauberman
