This Week's Updates!

Report Cards
Yay! Report cards are on their way. Can you believe we have already finished the first trimester of school? Report cards will be sent home on Thursday, November 21. Please keep the report card,
but sign the yellow card and return it in the envelope it will come home with .

Thanksgiving Break
There is NO SCHOOL the week of November 25-29. Enjoy Thanksgiving with your loved ones.

Penny Drive for the Holidays
Bring in your pennies for the Give Joy campaign, benefiting families in need. The Give Joy penny drive will run from Nov. 23rd-Dec. 18th with a pizza party on the 20th.

Box Tops
We are continuously collecting Box Tops as a fundraiser for our school and classroom. Every Box Top clipped gives .10 cents to our school....which adds up to purchase much needed supplies.

Holiday Party Parent

Would any parent like to volunteer to coordinate our Holiday Party in December?  Please let me know! 

Moms and Muffins!


Don't Forget! Moms and Muffins tomorrow from 8:00 - 9:00 in the Discovery Elementary Cafeteria!

Spirit Cup Fundraiser!


 If you have not had a chance to check out the "Spirit Cups" that the PTA is selling, I will put a catalogue and sample cup in the staff lounge.  The cups are pretty cool--durable, dishwasher safe and you have a wide variety of teams to choose from--NFL, MLB and Collegiate--so we can make everyone happy!!

Cups are sold in sets of 4, each set is $18.00...they make great Christmas presents.

The fundraiser ends next week.  The proceeds go toward the purchase of the First Tee Golf program for our school. 

Evan from our class has already sold 10 sets!  Way to go!!
