This Week

We have a half day this Friday, October 23rd-dismissal time is noon.  We also have earned a reward by filling our bucket with beads so the children voted on Pajamas and a movie Friday.  We are just finishing the book Because of Winn-Dixie so the children would like to watch the movie so we can compare it to the book.  Feel free to let me know if you have any comments, questions, or concerns.  Have a fabulous week!!!
