Dear Parents,
Welcome to another
edition of our Friday Folder newsletter! I am pleased to announce that
MEAP testing is finally over, and the kids and I are extremely glad!
They hung in there, did their best, and really made me proud. Thanks
again for all of your support and encouragement during the past
two weeks.
Thanks also for coming
to our WSE Fall Fest on Tuesday! It was a terrific evening for everyone.
I enjoyed seeing you again and, I’m glad your child had the chance
to show you around LoomisLand. :)
Here are a few quick
notes for you…
• Fun Run
Info. and Cards were sent home this week! It’s a little different
this year, hopefully simpler. We are asking that you just sign the
card giving permission for your child to participate and encourage
him/her to collect donations (NOT pledges). Both the Fun Run card
and money are due on November 1, the day of the run. How easy is that?!
:)
• Your scheduled
Parent/Teacher Conference time was sent home earlier in the week as
well. If you didn’t receive it from your child, please call
the office to find out your time.
• Swimming
starts on Monday and lasts all week. Please be sure your child is
prepared each day with swimsuit and towel.
• Red Ribbon
Week is next week too! We kick-off Monday with “Red Day!”
Let’s all help our kids see the importance of being drug-free!
• We earned
our first Positive Party a few days ago! We will be voting next week.
:) Be sure to ask your child all about it.
• Last, but
not least, our annual “Make a Difference Day” is tomorrow.
We will meet at school and be raking leaves for local families from
9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. rain or shine. Bring your family, bring a
rake, and join us! The more the merrier! :)
