Reminders
**Don’t forget to send in your
child’s $4 donation for the
Christmas party by Friday,
December 14.
**Our sweet students are becoming very captivated by all the holiday excitement! It is such a joy to see, but it is also very distracting during lessons, as you can imagine. Please encourage your child to be on their best behavior and stay focused. We still have much to accomplish this semester! And…Santa is watching! 👀
**Our class has been working really hard this semester, and our school supplies are showing the “wear and tear” of our efforts. Ask your child if he/she is needing new crayons, work box, pencils, scissors to start the new year.
It may be a good gift idea!
