I appreciate your time greatly. It is such a blessing to have parents who are involved in their child’s education and to get to teach your children who have such a love for learning. Just a few reminders for this week: Our September birthday bash is this Friday at 2:15. Please join us if you would like! You are also more than welcome to send snacks for our party! It would be greatly appreciated. The theme for this month’s party is, “Miss Lynch’s Peanuts Go Fall Camping” because we are reading Henry and Mudge and The stary Night. I thought it would be fun to tie it to our party. I will supply the s’mores materials, so be thinking what other snacking to send that would be campy. Please make sure to send your September reading logs back! I will be sending out the October ones on Tuesday when I get back from the Co-op. If you have any questions about this feel free to contact me! -Miss Lynch Ms. Cassie Lynch Email address: Clynch@alpena.k12.ar.us Alpena Elementary Website: www.alpenaschools.k12.ar.us 300 South Denver Street Phone Number: 870-437-2229
