Announcement 2
Last year's music fundraiser made it possible to purchase recorders for all of our current 4th and 5th graders. Some students indicated that they lost their recorder and would like to purchase another one. Mrs. Rayner has recorders available for purchase for $8.00 in the music room. Cash or checks made payable to Pontiac.
Media Center News
Your child has had the opportunity to participate in Read with the Gamecocks! We asked parents to help your child keep a log of their reading during the month of October.
The log was intended to track a classroom goal set by your child's teacher - either the amount of time spent reading, pages read, or books read.
READING LOGS ARE DUE FRIDAY TO OUR MEDIA SPECIALIST, MRS. BLACK!
Upon completion your student will have earn two tickets to the USC men's basketball game and two tickets to the USC women's basketball game. This allows for the student and one parent to attend. The student will also win a free voucher to EdVenture.
Ready, set, READ!
Media Center News
Pontiac Parents,
October is dress up time and we thought we would have some fun by decorating FAKE pumpkins as book characters. For the month of October we want your decorated pumpkins to decorate our library. Make sure you use a fake pumpkin because real pumpkins will rot before the end of the month! Also, make sure to put the student's name on the pumpkin so we can return them at the end of the month. Thank you for helping decorate our school media center!
