A Note from Mrs. Danley...

Dear Parents,
We are all set this week for our first Class Store on Friday!
Thank you to parents who have already sent in donated items for
our store! Students have been doing a great job earning money
for good behavior and making good choices. The children are excited about saving and spending their money.
We are so excited about our 100 days in school. We will be
celebrating this milestone on Monday with fun 100 Days activities. Students will be creating a 100 Day design with
Legos and enjoy an 100 Day Trail Mix which they will
use to do fun counting and sorting activities. They will
do some 100 day writing activities and enjoy 100 Day
stories.
Many Thanks, Mrs. Danley :)
