Hello Parents, It has been an eventful, busy week. We had our first fire drill and our first school assembly, and our class won the very first Golden Book Award for doing such a great job in the library. We have been practicing our penmanship, making a fall color book, and reading and discussing fables together. PARENT NIGHT - Thank you so much for coming to parent night this week. It was a pleasure to talk with you. I sent home a copy of some important class information for those of you who were not able to make it. NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY - Our school will be CLOSED on Monday, September 2nd for the Labor Day holiday. I look forward to seeing all of your bright, smiling faces again on Tuesday. INSTRUCTOR TEACHER NEXT WEEK - I will be out of the classroom on Thursday and Friday next week. My daughter is getting married, and we will have family coming in from out of state. Our instructor, Ms. Dastrup will be leading our class all day Thursday and Friday morning, and our other first grade instructor, Ms. Passi, will be teaching the class on Friday afternoon. Both of our instructors are very capable and great with our kids, and I am confident that our students will be kind and helpful as they step in. PUPPIES - One of the parents in our class has a litter of the most ADORABLE puppies, and she has offered to bring them in to our class for a visit. I am going to try to set this up for next week. If your child has any allergies that would prevent him / her from being able to handle the puppies, PLEASE LET ME KNOW before school begins next week. OCS CARNIVAL - We are going to have a wonderful time at our SCHOOL CARNIVAL, Monday, September 9th from 4:00 - 7:00. Don’t forget to PRE-ORDER your tickets for games and food by Tuesday, September 3rd. CET LEAD VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY- We are still looking for a volunteer to lead our first grade C.E.T. events. If you are interested, please let me know, or contact Megan Carpenter, who is heading up the C.E.T. program for the school: [email protected] LIBRARY VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES - Ms. Beckstrand is looking for people willing to help in our library. We need library volunteers to come in during our class library time , and also HRP (Home Reading Program) volunteers who can help prepare the books to send home with our students each week. HEARING SCREENINGS - We will have schoolwide hearing screenings on September 13. Please let me know beforehand if you have any concerns or requests that you would like me to pass along to our hearing specialist. I hope that you all will be able to relax and enjoy this wonderful Labor Day weekend.
