Dear Parents,

            We hope that the first week back to school after our break was a great one for everyone.  We can’t believe that we are going into our 2nd week of the 4th Six Weeks of the year!

            We have another very busy week ahead of us.  Today (Monday), you should have received your child’s report card.  Once you have reviewed their report card, please sign the envelope and return it to school.

            Our Awards Assemblies for the 3rd Six Weeks will be Friday, January 17th.  The assembly for PreK, K, 1st and 4th grades will be at 8:15.  The assembly for 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grades will be at 9:00 AM.

            The deadline to turn in the field trip money and form for "The Spell of Sleeping Beauty" is Friday, January 17th.

            Monday, January 20th will be a Student and Staff Holiday in remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  See everyone Tuesday, January 21st!
