Friday, October 25 Halloween dress-up day parade and pumpkin decorating contest!!
Come to the gym by 8:20 and place your pumpkin on the table labeled pre-k. Remember your child needs a pumpkin that he/she can carry. Children then go to their class prayer lines. Parents please go to the parade route (Details to come during the week). After prayers the children will parade in costume for the parents. Parents, please do not plan to come down to the classroom after the parade as we are not having a Halloween party. I do hope no one is too disappointed about this. Throughout the day we will have Halloween games and our special snack.

Parents are welcome to stay and cheer for the duration (yet unknown) of the Trikathon. Be sure to send in the permission form for your child to participate.
October 30th and 31st are parent-teacher conferences. Please return the parent form so that I will be prepared to address your concerns. Thank you!
