November 7

Well, November is moving along so quickly
I cannot believe it.

Even with the time change, it still doesn't feel like
Thanksgiving should be just around the corner.

Thanks to everyone who came and made our Halloween Carnival so great.
If you took pictures,
please give us some copies for the yearbook!

The month of November is election month,
and this year we only have one opening on our Steering Committee.
I am putting up a sign-up today for anyone
interested in running to fill this vacancy.

Voter ballots will be in your parent boxes next week,
and we will have the ballot box in the library until November 16th,
the last day before Thanksgiving break.

As always, we will have a family potluck on that day
from 1:00-3:00, so please join us if you can.

Also, if you have not already signed up for a parent conference,
the spaces are filling up fast.
Don't miss this opportunity to meet with the teachers
and get the latest updates on your children's progress.

One last announcement, and this is the first
of many times I will remind everyone about this-
The observance of Martin Luther King Day has been changed
from January 21 as it says on the school calendar
to January 14.

This was a county wide change and effects all schools,
as well as all parents- because we will be closed that day.

I'll remind you again before winter break,
but just in case you were making plans around
the long weekend, I wanted to let you know in advance.
