 Please remember: The little review books sent home in the big,
brown envelopes are to be read 3 times (sign just once for those 3
times on the enclosed sheet) and returned AFTER 2 days at most.
 We will be having a Valentine’s Celebration at school on Thursday,
February 13th, during our last 45 minutes of school.
A list of our class student names was sent home, so that your child can send
in Valentines cards for each classmate. PLEASE make sure that your child fills
a card out for EVERY CLASSMATE, so no one will be left out. This is very
IMPORTANT to our kiddos. It reinforces writing, organization, and peer
socialization for them, i.e., sharing. 
