Week
of November 11th
Thank you to
everyone who came to the parent/teacher conferences. It is always
nice to be able to sit down with each family one on one and talk
about how wonderful your kids are and our goals for the year. If you
were unable to make your scheduled appointment, Teacher Jo would be
happy to meet with you one day after school.
New
Schedule
This
week our schedule is going to change a little, so it may take a few
weeks for out kids to get used to the new outside time and snack
time. Class time will still begin at 9:00 and end at 11:45, but our
day while in class is going to change slightly. We will have the new
schedule posted outside of our class.

Our facebook page
is going to become another means of communication for our school. We
going to use it to announce school events, fieldtrips, regularly
scheduled days off, etc. So if you would like another reminder, this
is a great way to stay in touch with what is happening at our school.
February
Fieldtrip Sign up
February
12th
we are heading to NWCT to see Goodnight
Moon.
This year we are only going Wednesday, February 12th,
so
everyone is invited to attend. The cost is $5.00 per person. We
need to how many people will be coming before winter break starts, so
we will be setting out the sign in sheet this week. After your
child's name please let us know how many tickets you will need.
Please remember our school policy is that the teachers do not
transport or supervise the children during fieldtrips, so you will
need at least one adult per family. We will start collecting the
money after our Winter Break.

weeks songs in the Star Class
Sorry but we will
already be singing Christmas songs!! If you hear them at home, we
know it is a little early but in order to have at least some of the
kids sing at the Winter Concert we need to start singing them now.
We won't put them in the newsletter so you can be somewhat surprised
at the concert.
