Please remember that students are not allowed into the building until 9:00 a.m. as there is no supervision for them until that time. Students dropped off prior to 9:00 a.m. have to wait outside. The weather is getting colder so it would be appreciated if you not drop them off early. Students getting breakfast are allowed to enter the building at 8:50.

Parent teacher conferences are next Monday and Tuesday. Each day is a half day with an 11:30 dismissal. If you are unsure of your conference time, please contact the school. 

This week’s Words of the Day are product (M), gist (T), persuasive (W), adaptation (Th), and frustrated (F.) Our November PTA meeting is this Wednesday at 6:30 in the library. Please join us!
