Planning Ahead:


* The Little Caesars order pick-up date is scheduled for Friday, October 28th here at the school. Parents/Guardians will need to come to the school to pick up the orders on that day. We will not have freezer space to store them, nor can we send them on the school bus. Further details will be provided soon.


* We will be having our classroom Halloween parties on Friday, October 28th in the afternoon. Also, just as we have in the past few years, we will continue to provide the snacks and drinks for the parties. Students can bring their costumes to school and they will be allowed to wear them during their classroom party.


A Note from Nurse Jacquelyn:


* In the event of your student's absence/tardiness, even if not related to illness, please contact Ms. Kayla, the classroom teacher, and Nurse Jacquelyn to notify them of the absence. You can reach Nurse Jacquelyn at jgraves@savoyelementary.com or 743-1992 ext. 5503.


* We continue to have positive COVID cases within our school during various times. We appreciate your continued support in testing your child, if they are experiencing any symptoms and notifying the nurse's office. We do have a large inventory of COVID tests, so please do not hesitate to reach out if you need any.


Have a wonderful weekend!


Sincerely,


Mrs. Tierney
