Snacks Our snack cupboard is getting low so I’m asking each family to please send in another large box or 2 of snacks. You can send these in any time in the next week or so. Check labels to make sure snacks do not contain any traces of peanut butter, peanuts, or tree nuts. They can also not be processed in a plant that processes peanuts. Clothing/Shoes All students need to be able to zip coats, tie shoes, put on snow pants, hats, mittens and boots all by themselves, so please make sure your child is able to this with all of what they are wearing to school. All students should be able to get themselves dressed for recess. Once the snow comes and students are needing to wear boots, they must also be able to tie shoes once we come in from recess.
