Congratulations to "Eliot's Basement" for winning the dodgeball championship this week! This season had 6 teams with over 60 students participating and it was a huge success. We appreciate our students and staff and their enduring commitment to fun.
A NEW LOOK!
NO SCHOOL: 11/10
There is no school tomorrow, November 10th, as we pause to observe Veterans Day. We take this time to recognize those who have served and those who are currently serving in the armed forces.
PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES

PTA NEWS
The PTA is very excited to hold our annual Incognito Turkey contest again this year! Students will receive their turkey coloring page during school and we encourage them to color or decorate their turkey in any way they want to disguise it so they're not eaten for Thanksgiving! There is a collection box by the office, and the due date for entries is Monday, November 20th. If your student works on this at home, please make sure their name and teacher are on their submission somewhere!
🎄🎄Save the Date: Our annual Winter Tree Lighting will be held on Tuesday, December 19th at 6:00PM near the basketball court. Please dress in your warmest gear and join us for cookies and cocoa, singing, student-made ornaments, and a visit from some special friends!
