Dear Parents,

Next week we have three days of school due to the Thanksgiving holiday. There is no school on Thursday and Friday. Due to the short week there will be no homework. On Tuesday we will walk to the Onekama Public Library. We will leave at 12:20 p.m. and should return around 1:30 p.m. If your schedule permits, then join us. Please be sure that your child brings his/her library books to return. Students will check out three books. These books will be due on Tuesday, December 14^th.

Please be sure to send in proper cold weather attire everyday. It has been cold in the mornings. Your child needs to have a warm winter coat, hat and gloves. Your child is expected to go outside for recesses. If you feel your child is too ill to go outside, then please keep him/her at home. We have many students in our classroom with flu-like symptoms.

Book orders are due tomorrow.

• Picture Retakes — November 22

• Christmas program — December 15

• Christmas party — December 22

• Christmas vacation — December 23 — January 3

Warmly,

Shantel
