Parent/Teacher Conferences Coming!

Next week is Parent/Teacher Conferences (October 26th and 27th) and the elementary teachers are arranging the schedules.  I have contacted most of you and will be sending out confirmation notices this week (a few received them on Friday.)  I look forward to meeting with you!

Our field trip to the pumpkin patch was a wonderful experience!  The folks at Airlie Hills Farms are so kind to us.  The kids each left with a pumpkin and a gourd they picked from the patch (we are still trying to locate some missing gourds.)  It was a wonderful day exploring the grounds, playing on the equipment, visiting the petting zoo, taking a hayride, and we couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather.  Mr. Tuana and his wife even came to visit us -- did you see Mr. T. go down the tube slide? 

We have finished our Flu Fighter unit and the kids know what it takes to be a FLU FIGHTER!  Ask them some of the following questions:
1.  What is the flu?
2.  How is the flu spread?
3.  What can you do to prevent the spread of flu?
4.  If you are sick with the flu, what can you do?

This week is Sprit Week.  All K-12 students are invited to support our school by dressing up.  Each day has a different theme:
Monday:  Pajama Day
Tuesday: Color Day (2nd Grade: Lt. Blue, 3rd Grade: Yellow)
Wednesday: Nerd Day
Thursday: Orange and Black Day
Friday:  NO SCHOOL
