This week is another busy one! We start with 3rd Grade Hands on Science, and end with our Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! School Store and All Pro Dads. School Store is always such a sweet experience, seeing the kiddos thoughtfully buying gifts for loved ones, and then learning how to count out their money. (Don't forget it's cash only!)

4th Grade Parents – Lots in here for you:

• We need volunteers for Hands on Science labs on 12/18 & 12/19.
• The Special Buddies Spring Rotation sign-up is now open. The rotation will run from January 28th – April. Please see below for more information. This is a very unique and special program for those able to commit to it!
