Red Ribbon Week

Thank you to all of my parents who attended parent teacher conferences last week.  I was so delighted to speak to you all about your child's progress thus far in first grade.  I am so pleased to be partnering with you this year to help your child reach their fullest potential.  I am gearing up for a second round of parent teacher conferences.  I will send home reminders tomorrow for those of you that have conferences this week.

In the busy scheme of things....I went and forgot to send home the red ribbon week dress up themes.  I am so sorry.  But, hopefully most of you will see this post or the post I made on our class Facebook page.   Below is the information about red ribbon week.
