November 21-23

Hello Families!
What a wonderful job your kiddos did at our all-school concert! They really brought Frozen to life on the stage! 

Today your artist is coming home with his/her art smock for washing. Please be sure to return it to school next week. Art class is on Friday. 

A reminder that our first grade service project began this past week. We'd love to see your boughs filled with mittens galore!

Here's a link to this month's Literacy Spotlight with our Literacy Coach Laura Witkov.

I'm keeping our blog post very short today, but wanted to share a little something I came across that really spoke to me: Giving Thanks for 21 Blessings in Disguise.

This year I'm grateful for all of your children and for all of you. Your partnership in this journey we're on is so appreciated. I hope you find time over the holiday weekend to reflect on all that you are thankful for and to spend time with those you hold dear.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Michelle Mullen
