Halloween and PTC

Hello October!
I can’t believe it is October 1st! The holiday season has officially begun. I love this time of year and Halloween is MY favorite holiday. That is only one of the reasons that I am excited that this year Quest k-6 students will be allowed to wear Halloween costumes. Halloween costume guidelines are below. Also, keep in mind that children will be participating in PE that day.

We will start the day with a Halloween parade. Parents are encouraged to stay in the gym of Q2 the morning of Halloween. Students will all parade through the gym before returning to class.

After we return to class we will have a class party. Mrs. Dunyon will be heading up our fun and would like 4-5 parents to assist. Please let me know if you are able to help and we will contact you with more information.

Guidelines for Costumes: no blood, gore, weapons, violence, masks, or other face coverings. Students can use face and hair paint, but must be removed for school the next day.

Volunteers Needed and Parent Teacher Conference

Hello,

We have a lot of exciting activities planned this week in our classroom. I need lots of parent help to make sure the students have a great time.

First: Wednesday from 9:30-10:30 we will have an artist coming to our classroom. I would love to have 2-3 parents there to help with the project she will have for the students.

Second:  Also, on Wednesday after school from 3:30-4:15 we need help prepping flower beds. This means loosing up the soil and preparing the beds for tulip planting. Please bring a shovel! 🙂

Third: Thursday (1-3) I need a couple of parent volunteers to help with tulip planting. We will have a presentation from a Thanksgiving Point employee teaching the students about Tulips. Afterwards each student will be given a Tulip to plant. Help in managing the students during the planting would be appreciated.

Finally, our classroom has undergone several changes since back to school night. I am asking that everyone please sign up for parent teacher conference again. You can sign up by commenting below with your first and second choice, or you may come into the school. Sign ups will be on my classroom window.  PTC will be October 9th and 10th from 3:30-7:30. Each conference is about 10 minutes. 

Thank you for sharing your kiddos with me. They are a fun group. 

Mrs. H
