NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER

Dear Families,

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone who worked so hard to help us win the US Cellular Contest. We are so excited to have won $50,000.00. The celebration will be Thursday, Nov. 17th at 1:30 p.m. We want everyone to come to the K-8 and help us celebrate. We will be giving out prizes to the students who turned in the most cards in Pre-k through 4 and 5-8. We have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for each category. We will also award the classrooms with the most cards in each category with a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. I will be getting a Mohawk in front of the whole school that day as well.

We have some classroom fundraisers going on in the month of November. The 6th grade will be selling Rada from now until Nov. 1oth. Kindergarten will be taking orders for Krispy Kreme doughnuts beginning Nov. 14th until Nov. 22nd. The 8th grade will be sponsoring Christmas Portraits, which will be taken on Nov. 17th.
