It's Fun Run time! Our Fun Run is scheduled for Wednesday, October 31, as follows:
Fourth Grade - 9:00-9:50

We are watching updated weather forecast to see if we need to make adjustments for a Rain Plan. If so, we will let everyone know as soon as possible! Hopefully the rain will hold off until we are finished.
First Grade Field Trip
Tomorrow our first grade students will travel to Orr Family Farm for their field trip. This is a working farm, with lots of animals, so please be sure your child wears appropriate clothing (and shoes)!
Picture Retakes
Picture retakes are scheduled for this Tuesday, October 30.
Socktober
Remember that we are participating in a service project this month. New socks are one of the most requested items at emergency shelters. Throughout the month of October we are collecting new socks. There is a collection box in the office. I can't wait to give you a count on how many we've collected.
Save the Date - Holiday Lunches
Each year the cafeteria invites parents to join us for Thanksgiving and Holiday lunch. Parents of kinder, 3rd & 4th grade students are invited to join us on Friday, November 16. Parents of 1st & 2nd grade students are invited to join us on Friday, December 14. Reservation forms for Thanksgiving Lunch will be sent home in the next few days. Reservation forms for the December lunch will be sent home after Thanksgiving.
Bedlam Dress Up Days
Next Monday-Wednesday, November 5-7, are Bedlam Dress-Up Days at Stone Ridge! Students will earn a point for every OU or OSU item they wear to school on those three days. The flag of whichever school that gets the most points will fly over Stone Ridge for Bedlam weekend. Start planning those Bedlam outfits now!!
Sub Training
The next session of sub training will be held this Thursday, November 1, 9:00-10:00. If you've thought about being a substitute in Piedmont Schools, you will want to attend this training.
