What a fun week we had last week celebrating Red Day, Crazy Dress Day, and Dads & Donuts!  A BIG thank you to Miss Laurie for all of her hard work to prepare both playgrounds for Red Day...it was so much fun!

Your child may be receiving (or did receive) a fundraising packet from Kids Are First in his or her cubby.  Money earned from this fundraiser helps to fund new classroom opportunities for students in preschool through 8th grade.  Please note, this fundraiser opportunity is completely optional, and families who have a student in our elementary school did not receive a packet, since your elementary school student is encouraged to participate as well.  Orders will be collected up until October 7th.  Thank you in advance for your help with this!

This week, our main event is Grandparents/Special Friends Day.  This event is hosted on Friday, September 30, and is for students in our Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow Star Classes only.  The festivities will begin at 9:00 AM in your child's classroom.  Please instruct your child's "special person" to meet the child in there.  We will conclude our morning in the chapel.  If your child will be going home with their grandparent/special friend, please fill out a special release form, available from your child's teacher.  If they will be returning to class after the festivities, just fill out the form and mark that they will be staying the rest of the day.  If your child will not have a special friend, please let your child's teacher know so that we can make arrangements to buddy them up with someone else.

Blessings on your week,
