Weekly Update #12
Friday, November 13 is Freaky Friday!
The teachers have homework. The students have coffee. What is happening? It’s Freaky Friday on Friday, November 13! Students dress like a staff member, and staff dress like a student! Grab a cardigan or rock that backpack—we’re swapping styles for a day of “Wait…is that my teacher?!”
Pizza, Pizza, Pizza!
Third grade is hosting a pizza fundraiser on Friday, November 13. If you preordered pizza for the year, you’re all set! If not, order forms have been sent home or can be found here. Order forms are due Friday, November 6. Lunch is $7 and will include a slice of cheese pizza, carrots, and an applesauce pouch. Please return the form to your child's teacher or to Ms. Stacy/Ms. Danielle. Thank you for supporting 3rd grade field trips!
