From email:

Thank you to our room parents for planning our party!  I am excited to to see many of you tomorrow afternoon.  

A few reminders/announcements:

• You can come at 12:35 to help with costumes even if you did not sign up.  After we are all in our costumes we wait to hear that the parade has started.  
• No weapons.  Masks are fine. Comfortable shoes suggested. If your child needs to wear a jacket for the 15 minute parade, please let me know.  If not- I will let them decide for themselves. 
• The parade starts at the main doors, walks around the block, and then goes around the playground.  I takes about 15 minutes. Some parents will want to set up for the party after watching a few minutes of the parade.
• Once we are back in the room we will have a fall celebration with games and a healthy snack
• Dismissal is at 2:30.  If you decide to take your child early, please remember to check out in the office
• I've been known to say hi to trick or treaters on the 1100 block of Scoville during trick or treating hours. You might even spot our librarian, Ms. Noonan.  ;)

Fun Run Party

You are AWESOME!  I am so amazed at how generous you have been to the school through your support of the Fun Run as volunteers and donors.  We will celebrate by having a picnic in our classroom on Tuesday, November 12th.  Details to come.  NO PIZZA will be served because of district policy.  I will remind you closer to the day to pack a NUT free lunch or order a hot lunch from the school.  (Please direct questions to Nurse Jamie if you ever have health related concerns.)
