**International Walk Day is OCTOBER 3rd!  You received a notice in your child's Apple Binder. Family members are invited to come walk with their children during P.E. time.  **OUR P.E. TIME IS FROM 11:00 to 11:40 a.m.  Come join us!

FALL BREAK!  October 6 - 10 ~~~ Enjoy your family time :)

October 16th ~~~ Report Cards

New passages will come home after Fall Break!.... Students are bringing home one reading passage every Monday in the Apple Binder.  This passage will be practiced at home and signed (initials) at the bottom every night.  Set a timer for one minute, and let your child read to you.  Also let him/her read the entire passage for you during the week.  I will be checking every Friday! :)

FIELD TRIP NOTICE!!  Please send $25 and the completed field trip form for "A Christmas Carol" by 8:00 on Monday, October 13th.  The date has been extended, but this is the FINAL DAY and money will not be accepted after that date.  We already have three parents signed up as chaperones, so please keep this in mind. 


Our PE Department will be selling JUICE FLAVORED shaved ice this year.  The scheduled date is on October 2.  Please send $1.50 CASH at least two days ahead.  Make SURE you send exact change in an envelope or zip bag with your child's name and homeroom teacher clearly identified. The money raised will be used to purchase additional PE and playground equipment.  Thank you so much!


Remember to put your child’s name, phone number, “E. Boyer” and lunch number on checks. 

Put ALL MONEY in a zip bag or envelope telling what it is for.  Children do not remember.
