I will provide more information as it comes if the guest teacher will be able to have you look at their work OR if we will have to reschedule. Thank you so much for your understanding!
- January 25th is picture retake day. Dorian Studio will be here between 8:30am-10:30am for those interested in picture retakes, and those that missed Fall photos. Please send your kiddo(s) dressed to impress if you plan on getting retakes done. Recker Campus Online Ordering
- Valentine’s Day: It’s almost time to celebrate our Valentines (FRIENDS)! Second grade will be celebrating in our classrooms on February 14th by sharing Valentines and some fun activities during our normal school day. If your student would like to make Valentines for their classmates, they are welcome to, as long as one is made for each student in their classroom. A class list is attached. Valentine boxes or bags (to collect their Valentines) must be decorated at home and brought in for that day. If anyone is in need of bags or Valentine’s cards, please let me know. Please note our NO SWEETS and NO NUTS policy. Stickers are an amazing alternative! Also, let me know if you want to bring in a HEALTHY snack for your student to share. 🙂
