Important Announcements:

*Dylan will be celebrating his birthday on November 30th.  Happy Birthday, Brendan! 

*Today we had our fall party.  It was a blast!  Thank you so much to Mrs. Fought for organizing a fantastic party.  I would also like to thank the families that donated to make the party a success.  These families were: The Dougherty Family, The Fought Family, The Hart Family, The Higgins Family, The LaRoche Family, The Matthews Family, The Rowe Family, The Scheumann Family, The Sylva Family, and the Thompson Family.  Thanks so much to the parents that were able to come to the party and celebrate with us.  The parents that attended were: Mrs. Dougherty, Mrs. Fought, Mrs. Hart, Mrs. Higgins, Mrs. LaRoche, Mr. Matthews, Mrs. Rowe, Mrs. Sinclair, Mr. and Mrs. Sylva, Mr. Utterback, Mrs. Walker, and Mrs. Williams. ****If I forgot to mention a parent that participated or a family that donated, it was not intentional! 

*There will be no school on Thursday, November 28th and Friday, November 29th.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving!  This year I am thankful that I have such wonderful students and supportive parents.  YOU are the reason I love teaching! 

*We will be having our body safety program on December 5th from 10:00 – 10:45. 

*Make sure Monday, December 9th is marked on your calendars!  That is the evening of the second grade music program!  It will be a wonderful program that your child has been working very hard on preparing for you!  The program starts at 6:30.  Your child will need to be dropped off at the classroom at 6:10 p.m. 

*I believe in building relationships with the children both inside my classroom and outside the classroom.  If your child participates in any extracurricular activities (sports, dance, theater, etc.), or has any other events that he/she would like to invite me to, please let me know, and I will do my best to come!
