It's Pumpkin Huntin' Season!!

Hello Parents,

Happy Halloween! We will be having an all school pumpkin hunt Thursday October 29th. The hunt will be in the afternoon and we ask that your child takes his or her pumpkin home after the festivities. We have been using the pumpkins for various activities in math, theme and writing and we'd like to get them home before they start to rot, go bad, etc.

Also, another quick reminder that we will be going on a field trip to the Children's Museum on Friday October 30th. Thank you to the parents who are attending as helpers. Please make sure your student is at school on time because we will be leaving for the bus shortly after we take attendance.

Last but not least, we have a Parent's Day Out on Saturday October 31st. Your student can come to school dressed in his or her Halloween Costume and enjoy a fun day of games, haunted houses, movies and more.

Please let us know if you have any questions about the upcoming events.

Thanks,
Mr.Lucas, Ms.Pranke and Mr. Walker

Thank You!!

Thank you to everyone who helped make Mr. Walker and Ms. Pranke's birthday a special day. Your gifts and cards really touched our hearts and reminded us both of what a great group of students and parents we have to work with.

Be well,

Mr. Walker & Ms. Pranke

Exciting October Events

Hello Shark and Kangaroo Parents!

October is in full swing and we wanted to give you a friendly reminder that students need to be sent to school with a long sweater and/or coat.

In other news, the annual Back to School Night will be happening this Wednesday evening October 14th for lower school. This event will be for parents only and they should plan on being at the school by 6:30 pm. Unfortunately, Ms.Pranke will not be in attendance for this fun-filled event due to a family emergency. She will be out the rest of the week, and return to school the following Monday.

We also have the celebration of Diwali happening on Friday October 16th. Any parents who would like to share a special activity or participate in anyway are encouraged to attend. We would love to see you here to celebrate!

Other important dates that will be happening this month are as follows:

• Maintenance Day - Saturday October 17th from 9-1:00pm
• Field Trip to the Children's Museum - Friday October 30th from 9:30-11:30
• Halloween PNO - Saturday October 31st from 12-4pm

If you have any other questions feel free to ask or email. We hope you are enjoying the leaves changing and the wonderful transition to fall!

Mr.Lucas, Ms.Pranke, and Mr.Walker
