Week of November 13-17, 2017

​Dear St. Jane Frances de Chantal School Community, 

Welcome to the beginning of Trimester II and the start of Conferences week! In order to prepare for a great conference with your teacher, I have attached a handout that can be helpful. Together, with your teachers, we can all help your child do their very best.

Looking ahead, here is what is coming up:
· Conferences are this week and dismissal for Wednesday-Friday are 12:40 PM.
· Pumpkin/Apple Pie - Fliers were handed out earlier this week. They are selling for $4, along with whip cream & milk. Pre-order is due in the beginning of the week!
· Santa’s Workshop – Every classroom will have a sign-up sheet for volunteers to help set-up/wrap presents. This is a great way to do your service hours. (You need to be VIRTUS trained to wrap presents.)
· VIRTUS training is coming up this Saturday. You can sign up by calling the parish office. (818) 985 - 8600 
· Nurse Wood has sent a flier on an upcoming Diabetes Expo coming up this weekend. It is attached below.
