Look into our week 2/9-2/12

Good morning parents and guardians, 

I hope you are all enjoying the weekend! As mentioned in my previous posts we have two celebrations coming up (more information and  a sign up sheet is available on the easel outside of the classroom-almost all donated items have been signed to be donated-THANK YOU): Valentines day and 100th day of school.
Our Valentines day celebration will be Feb 12 and our 100th day celebration will be Feb 18.
