How is August already almost over?? This year is flying by! I loved getting to see you all at Open House on Wednesday. Thank you so much for taking the time to come see our classroom. The kids were thrilled to see their letters from you on Thursday morning.
Reminders & Annoucements:
- I will submit our Scholastic book order next Friday! We've had lots of orders already which means lots of free books for our classroom! Thanks for all who have ordered. I know your kiddos are going to love the books you've chosen.

- Next Wednesday is early release! Please be sure to send in a note for different transportation
- KSE night at the Braves order deadline has been extended! You can order until 8/31
