  • The 5th graders are selling "Boo Grams" (suckers) for $1 every morning this week. If you want to send one to your child, please send in the money in an envelope with a note.
  • There have been lots of papers/homework "misplaced" lately by the students. Please reinforce being responsible at home. I usually only make enough copies for each child to get one of whatever it may be. If they loose their homework I will not make another copy.
