Our field trip to Playhouse on the Square to see Peter Pan is Wednesday, November 30. We
will be leaving school around 9:00, so it is important that your child arrives at school on time
that day. If you plan to follow the bus, you will need to be here by 8:45. If you are planning to
meet us at Playhouse on the Square, you need to be there by 9:30.

Thanksgiving Feast

Mystery Reader

On Tuesday, November 22, your

child will get to enjoy a special
lunch in honor of Thanksgiving.
Your child may dress like a
Pilgrim or Native American on
the day of our Thanksgiving
Feast.

I would like to thank Kevin

Shelby, Ethans dad, for being
our Mystery Reader today. I
want to thank him for sharing his
time and his love of reading with
us. His visit was a fun way to
end our week!

. . . for the Mighty One has done

great things for me - holy is His
Luke 1:49
name.

A Scholastic book order is being sent

home today. If you would like to
order, you may order online.
