All BBQ tickets and money are due Friday, Oct. 4th. All money raised will go toward technology for the classrooms.

Monday, Oct. 7th is a teacher in-service day. The students are out of school for the day.

Our trip to Dream Field Farm's Pumpkin Patch is Thursday, Oct. 10th. All children have paid and adults will pay upon arrival. Cost for adults is $5.00. I sent home a form for you to return letting me know if you plan to go with us, so I can make arrangements for transporting children there and back to school. We will leave that morning as soon as roll has been checked. Please have your child to school and ready to leave promptly by 8:00. Our Pumpkin Patch tour begins and 9:00 sharp. We will wear our PTO field trip t-shirts. The children will need to wear tennis shoes. The children will carry picnic lunches. Please make sure everything is disposable, so they will not be responsible for keeping up with items. Also, be sure to label lunches. Please send an extra water bottle with your child's name on it. They tend to get be very tired and thirsty at the end of our time at the Pumpkin Patch. I will need someone to bring a large cooler of ice for drinks and lunches. Please let me know if you can furnish this. Parents can bring lunch as well or may order from the concessions available. Children will not order lunch. Everyone planning to drive on field trips must have a copy of driver's license and insurance information on file in this office. Please send this information if you haven't already done so. Files will be checked before we go on the trip. Thanks!!!

The Fall Festival is Tuesday, Oct. 29th. The K5 classes are responsible for the Teddy Bear Walk. Any donations of new or gently used stuffed animals are greatly appreciated! Also each class will need two volunteers to work 30 minute shifts. Please let me know which shift you can help with:
6:00-6:30:
6:30-7:00:
7:00-7:30:
7:30-8:00:
Thank you so much for your help!!!

There will be a pep rally this Friday. Be sure to send tattoo money by Thursday morning if you plan to order this week.

The cheerleaders are selling chances to be a cheerleader for a quarter at the game Friday night. Each chance cost $1. Four girls will be chosen from grades K4-6th grade. There will be one girl chosen for each quarter. They will also be recognized at half-time. If your girl would like to buy a chance please send money in a labeled Ziploc bag.

Have a great week!!!
