Dear Parents,

Tomorrow I will not be in the classroom. Natlie Reed will be my substitute. She lives in Bear Lake and holds a certification elementary K-5 all subjects. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me on Thursday or Monday.

Next week students will have their first magazine test. This test is to assess your child’s comprehension, phonics/decoding, and writing. During parent-teacher conferences, I will review your child’s test with you. The test will be given Monday through Wednesday at 8:00 — 9:45 a.m. It is important for your child to get a good breakfast and to be to school on time.

Our Halloween party is Friday, October 29th at 12:20 to 3:00 p.m. Students’ costumes need to come to school in a bag with their name on it. They will dress for the parade after last recess at 1:20 p.m. The Halloween parade is at 1:40 p.m. The following people have volunteered to Shelli Kubiskey, Kelly Maser, Lisa Morley and Heidi Wisniski. You will be in charge of an art project so please come to the room at noon for instructions. Leslie Acton, Liz Coryell Shelli Kubiskey and Heidi Wisniski are providing treats. Kelly Maser is providing drinks. Patti Swanson is providing cups and plates. If your schedule allows, then please join us.

Thank you to those who have sent in items from my wish list. It is greatly appreciated. I’m always accepting donations. I still need the following items for our Halloween party: borax, green food coloring, and white crape paper.
