Classroom News & Reminders *As the weather gets cooler, remember to send your child in with appropriate clothing. If they are not dressed appropriately, they will stay inside for an alternate activity during our recess. They need to be wearing a COAT to go outside when temperatures are cold. *We will go to the Media Center on Tuesday so remember to send books back that are ready to be returned.
