Week of 11-6-17

Dear parents,

Another wonderful week in second grade. We had a fun visit from the Bookworm on Wednesday. She tells wonderful stories. Report cards will be in the Friday folders. Please keep everything in the report card envelope and just return the envelope. Please fill out and return the applications permission form as soon as you can. I sent and email detailing the reasons for this permission form.

Friday, November 10 is the Silent Auction. I am looking forward to seeing you there.
