A Note from the Principal

Good morning!

This week is our Santa's Workshop. This is a small fundraising event where students may come to shop for presents on their own for their family. We encourage all students to think about the people who they'd like to shop for and make a list with you tonight. You can send in cash or come "shopping" with them before or after school. Our parent volunteers will help them wrap and label their gifts so they're ready to put under the Christmas tree!

December is here & we are so excited for the next few weeks. Here's what is in store for us:
Dec 2-16 Christmas Food Drive & Toys for Tots Drive
Dec. 10-12 Santa's Workshop
Dec. 13 Drama Winter Performing Arts Showcase 6pm in the theatre
Dec. 16 Christmas Train Parade (during morning assembly 7:45am)- wear pajamas
Dec. 17- Dress like a present or Christmas Tree
Dec. 18- Christmas Program
Dec. 19- Last day of school 12:30pm dismissal (NO AFTER SCHOOL CARE) Free Dress day
Dec. 20-Jan 6- NO SCHOOL!
Tues. Jan 7- School resumes

There are some volunteer opportunities available on schoolspeak for Santa's Workshop & the Christmas program. Be sure to sign up! (it is NOT recommended for you to sign up to volunteer on the Day of the Christmas show for the program your child will be performing in)

Happy birthday to Ms. Esparza (Sunday 12/15)! May she continue to bless our school through music for years to come!
