Announcements: Valentines Party: If you haven’t already, please fill out the Valentine google form, https://forms.gle/dKP5NyQy5Xb5Z9k58 . Students without a permission slip will be given an alternative activity. We have 26 students. Please do not write who the Valentines are to, just have your child write that they are from them. That will make the process much smoother when handing them out. We will be decorating bags in class for the Valentines. (Please do NOT bring a Valentines box). We will also be decorating sugar cookies. The permission slip for this was signed at the beginning of the year.
