Week of October 1st

Thanks to everyone who drove or offered to drive for the Mt. Hood Railroad. This week we are off to the Bonneville Dam and it should be an exciting trip as well. Those of you who are driving it will not be necessary to arrive early like the last field trip. We will be leaving school at 8:45 and returning by 1:30. Please remember to bring a sack lunch and car seats (boosters).

NO SCHOOL
Just wanted to give everyone a reminder that next Thursday and Friday (10/11-12) there will be no school because of our annual Staff Retreat.

SLEEPOVER
The K.1.2 sleepover is coming up and will be on Thursday, October 18. Students will leave school at normal time on the 18th and return at 6:30 for a Sleepover. We will have activities, a potluck and a bedtime story for the students. We will also provide breakfast and students who make it through the night can be picked up the next day at noon like any other Friday. Students will need to bring a sleeping bag, pillow, change of clothes and other nighttime essentials. It should be a lot of fun. Any parents interested in chaperoning will be greatly appreciated. Just let us know if you can come.

VOLUNTEERS
If you are interested in volunteering in the classroom on a consistent basis then please contact me at school. I can always use an extra hand, copy help, or other odd jobs to help the school day go a little smoother.

Talk to ya'll soon.
