So we have time for the printing, please have your child bring their shirt to school FRIDAY, APRIL12.


Grades 3-7

Plain, short-sleeved, T-shirt that will be worn under Israelite tunics (shepherd costumes) and shorts. Because the sleeves will show on many of the tunics. we are looking for muted colors- gray, white, tan, olive green. We will not be printing anything on these shirts.

Winter coat? Jacket? Sweatshirt? T-shirts?


Because of our fickle weather and sometimes cooler classrooms, it's helpful for your child to have a lighter jacket/sweatshirt/ sweater option available for those warmer days outside, as well as cooler days while inside. Sometimes a t-shirt is just too cool to wear these days in the classroom, so to help your child be comfortable, we encourage you to provide a long-sleeved option or sweatshirt.


Likewise, we may have "winter coat weather" in the morning for recess, and "sweatshirt weather" in the afternoon or after school. Having a lighter coat option will prepare us for our lovely, ever-changing ND weather!
