The Barrett Bulletin

Hello Barrett Families!

We have lots of fun events and activities in the month of October, so please check your child's folder for important papers! Please continue to sell chocolate!! We still have many cases in the office to sell! The top selling student will receive a gift card, and the top selling class will win either a pizza or ice cream party! Additionally, if we meet our goal of $5,000 in chocolate sales, we will have a pajama party and Miss Marybeth will get pied in the face!!! Please help us reach our goal!!!

A flyer went home separately as we will be wearing pink on Tuesday to honor breast cancer awareness month!

There was a mistake in the October calendar regarding our PAC meeting date. There is no PAC meeting on October 16th. Please join us on November 6th at 9:15 for our next meeting!

A flyer went home for our Trunk or Treat event. You only need to return the bottom half if you are signing up to decorate your car as a trunk! If you are planning on coming just to trick or treat, you can just come that night with your $2.00. Thank you!

We are looking for raffle prizes/baskets for our upcoming Dine to Donate fundraiser at Texas Roadhouse on October 29th. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have something you can contribute!

Our costume parade will be on Friday, October 31st at 9:15 for the morning session and 1:00 for the afternoon session. Families are allowed to line the perimeter and watch their child as they walk by with their class. In the event of rain, we will do the parade inside. Unfortunately, if it rains, it will not be open to families due to space issues.

We will be sending home information about ordering Barrett Russell spirit wear! Please be sure to check your child's folder daily!
