It has been a great start to the fourth quarter! On an exciting note, students are showing their best work as they work hard to create their very own class book. Additional books will be available for purchase if you would like your child to have a copy as a memento. An order form was sent home last Thursday if you would like to purchase one. Please return the order form no later than Thursday, March 28th as payments will not be accepted after the deadline. We look forward to seeing our hard work come to life!
If you are not able to purchase one, please look forward to borrowing a future copy of the class book from our school library.
