Student Council Officers

Congratulations to the following students on their positions for Student Council Officers:

Classrooms are still in the process of electing class representatives. These positions will be announced later this week.  I am so proud of all of the children who took a risk and participated in the Student Council Officer Election process. 

4 Schools 1 Books
The kickoff for the 4 Schools 1 Book is on Tuesday, October 4th. We are requesting that all students wear yellow. Thanks for your flexibility with two yellow days in a short period of time. The calendar of activities will be included with the book that will come home on Tuesday. Just a reminder that this should be a time where parents are reading the books aloud to their children.
