Happy Reformation Day!
This weekend is one of the big events of the school year and I hope that all of you will be able to make it. I am sorry that all of our signs say that the events start at 6:00. We had originally scheduled Fall Festival for after daylight savings time change, but then we moved it up. We will actually be starting at 7:00. We will have a lot of the old standbys as well as some new additions to the fun. Our choir will be singing for the first time publicly! Please help us by making sure that your child is where they are supposed to be during the evening and we would like to ask that you do not let your children go outside to play on the play equipment. Also keep track of your child so that they are ready to go when it is time for them to sing. This is the major fundraiser for our classrooms and we will also be raising money for Worthy Student Fund, Playground equipment and a sound system for our choir. The one that we use is borrowed from the conference office.
Just a few reminders!
· Next Thursday and Friday I will not be at the school since I will be going with the Junior and Senior class on College Days to SWAU.
· We will be participating in the Winter Korean program and are looking for host families to take two students for the months of January and February. The first week of February we have Winter Break while our teachers are at a conference in Austin, and that week the Korean students will also be gone on a trip. The host family will get 1,000 dollars per student for taking care of them and the students will be at school during the day. Bill Norman is taking four Korean students. Let me know if you can help us with this!
· Our Olympic Day was a success and I wish that you all could have seen Ruby run and Debora eat that pie! We will be posting pictures on the website!
· The Music Festival has been changed to March 1.
· Please get your money in on the apple orders and the Entertainment book orders!
· The teachers would like to ask you once again to pick up your child at 3:00. If you come after 3:30, please contribute to our Worthy Student Fund by giving the teacher on duty 5.00! Our teachers have been with children all day and they have appointments that they need to keep. They can’t leave if your child is here!
I think that that is the most important news. Our next big event will be the Christmas performance. If any of you would like to help, please contact Mrs. McClendon. Have a wonderful Sabbath!
