Happy October! First of all, I want to thank you so very much for coming to our Curriculum Night last Thursday. Your children were so very pleased to find and read your notes.  This month promises to be a very busy and exciting one! We look forward to welcoming all of you who kindly volunteered to come and help in our classroom. We will send out a Parent Volunteer Calendar ASAP. I apologize for the confusion regarding the Fall Field Day. I was told it was October 4, but in reality it is Day 4 which happens to be Thursday, October 3. If you were someone who volunteered to help, please report to the gym at 1:00PM. The activities will run from 1:30-2:30.
Many thanks!
