Town Center Parent Newsletter

Red Ribbon Week is an alcohol, tobacco, and other drug prevention awareness campaign observed annually in October in the United States. This year's motto is, "Send a Message. Stay Drug Free."

Our TCE Student Council has designated a dress up theme each day to help get kids involved and keep it at the forefront of their minds for the week as we continue to encourage our kids to make smart, healthy choices.

Please refer to the attached graphic to see our dress up themes for each day next week. These are optional, but we'd love for our students to join in!

Book Character Pumpkin Extravaganza

It is a BOOK CHARACTER pumpkin extravaganza. I want to see what you can do with a little paint, a little fabric, and other craft supplies to transform an ordinary pumpkin into your favorite book character! Maybe a little red paint to make Clifford? Maybe some yellow yarn to make Goldilocks? The pumpkins you create AT HOME will be on display in the library for all to enjoy.

Extravaganza Rules:

Only Book Characters will be accepted. (Which book did you use?)

NO CARVING ALLOWED! (That makes for one stinky library!)

Each pumpkin entry must be accompanied by an entry card that includes the student(s) name, teacher name, name of book character, and title of book. Click here for sample.

Important Dates:

Monday, Oct. 21st —Friday, Oct. 25th: Bring your pumpkin creations to the library

Thursday, Oct. 31st - Participating families join us for a pumpkin celebration at 7:20 AM in the library.

*All pumpkins will need to go home by November 7th or they will be discarded.
