Mrs. Burch's Weekly Update (11/22)

Hello, families! We had a great week! PLEASE make sure your child has a coat and winter gear available to bring to school! It's been cold in the morning and students are still coming to school without coats! Thank you for your help with this!!

  • If you would like to volunteer in our classroom this year, please make sure you have filled out all the paperwork and have been cleared in the office before signing up! Here is the sign-up for Classroom Volunteers! 
  • Please note: We do not celebrate birthdays with edible treats in 2nd grade. You are welcome to send in a pencil, small toy, or trinket for your child to pass out, if you wish! We will make sure their day is special regardless! ðŸŽ‰

PTO Update:

The Husky Holiday Shop is coming!

We are excited to host a brand new revamped Holiday Shop this year. In previous years the PTO has used Holiday Shop vendors to provide us items for the shop and in turn they keep about 80% of the profit. Along with this, the prices of these shop items range from $0.25 to $15 which is hard for kids these ages to budget/shop in such a short amount of time. To make the experience a bit easier, shop prices are going to all be on the dollar and range in price from $1 to $6, with most items costing $1 to $3. Within the week we will send home a flyer (with your students shopping day), a preview list of items/prices, and budget envelope for your student.
