Newsletter 6 2012-2013 12/13/2012
Dear Families,
Just some quick reminders:
Christmas Concert
Our Winter Holiday Concert for 3rd, 4th, and 5th will be Thursday, December 13 (tonight) at 6:30pm. The PTA is accepting donations for the bake sale they have at this time every year, too.
Please drop off the students in our classroom at 6:20; and the whole class will walk down together. Many people often get here earlier than that for seats and parking (and just walk the students up to the classroom at 6:20), since the place will be packed.
After the show, teachers take students back to the classroom, and families pick them up there.
Because 2 of my own kids have events tonight as well, I’m not able to be here. Mrs. Smith has volunteered to be here in my place, and I’m grateful.
Celebration
We were hoping to have a class breakfast before the break, but so far only 2 people have responded. I know things are hectic this time of year, so we can cancel if this doesn’t work. If it does work, please let us know so we can plan for it.
We’ll have our year-end celebration on Wednesday, December 19th, which will be a holiday breakfast together in the classroom. We’ll start around 9:15.
For the breakfast, we’ll need families to contribute supplies, and volunteers to help here at school. We’d like to have toast decorated with food coloring, sausages, fruit for kabobs (bananas, apples, grapes, oranges), and something to drink.
Renee Hopkins has (again) volunteered to coordinate supplies. If you can help out by volunteering or bringing in any supplies please contact Renee Hopkins.
We’ll need plates, napkins, plastic silverware, toasters, white bread, food coloring, cut fruit, sausages (either cooked at home and reheated here, or cooked here in electric skillets), something to spread on the bread like butter or jam, and juice boxes or pouches. No peanuts, please.
