Important Dates and Information

All School Picnic this Friday, November 3rd
This Friday, November 3rd is our first all school picnic of the year! Classes will head outside (weather permitting) for their regular recess and lunch times. Parents are welcome to join in the fun and bring a blanket and lunch (or parents can order a sandwich too).
As always, students are welcome to bring a lunch from home (one that doesn’t need to be heated, as we will all be outside). We will be having a special lunch from Jimmy Johns for our hot lunch menu option on Friday:
Ham sandwich with provolone, lettuce, tomato, & mayo and chips
 – $5 for a small (4″)
– $6 for a large (8″)

New This Year: Used Book Donations & Coin Collection

Need to make room on your shelves for new books? We will be collected any gently used books outside of the book fair (in the lobby). These books will be donated to local organization in the Ozarks. Also, we will be collecting spare change during the book fair. Scholastic will match all change donated and will use the money to send new books to schools affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
