HAVE YOU STARTED WRITING YOUR CINDERELLA STORY?!?!

IF NOT...

START IT TODAY!!!

NOTES:

• Tomorrow is our Code Red Drill. We will practice in the morning and then execute the drill - along with the rest of the school - after the morning recess. It should take about an hour. Please let your child know that their safety is paramount and we must work together as a class - as silently as we can - to create our barricades and wait patiently. A large portion of the day will be dedicated to this as clean up and restoration of the room will be time-consuming.
• Thursday is the Winter Concert in the Multi: 3rd graders @ 6:30 p.m.; 4th and 5th @ 7:00 p.m. Click here for more information.
• Cinderella Story instructions went home last week. They should be working on their stories. Books to be distributed after their story gets approved by me.
• Place your yearbook orders online.  Last chance to order them is March 1, 2014.
