Dear Families,

I wanted to let you know about a few things that are taking place nect week. We have a very fun week planned for your child!

  • Wednesday, December 17th, we will be watching Polar Express and having hot chocolate. Your child may wear their pajamas that day!

  • Thursday, December 18th, they have their Christmas music program. They will get to perform for the elementary students and staff during the school day. They will perform that evening at 7, for their families and friends.

  • If you have not, please send in a gift for the gift exchange with your child next week. We will have our gift exchange on Friday, December 19th, before the parties. The parties will start at 9 a.m. Due to this party being a breakfast party, they are welcome to wear their pajamas that day as well.
