Red Ribbon Week

This week is Red Ribbon Week and Mrs. Reaves has scheduled different themes for each day.  Today the students were encouraged to wear a red uniform shirt.  Tomorrow is team shirt/jersey day.  Wednesday students may wear jeans with a regular uniform shirt.  On Thursday the students may wear camouflage.  On Friday students may bring a pillow, slippers, and a small blanket.  We will be reading with our buddy class (Mrs. Tinker in 1st grade) from 8-9.
Also, the district is holding a canned food drive this week. I will give the students a ticket who bring in a canned good.

Has your child started on the Texas Project?  Remember the project is due on November 3rd.

The bond election will be held on November 8th.  The students brought home a bond election pamphlet today.  Please read it carefully!  There is early voting October 24-November 4.

I am going to have the kids show some ownership in this blog.  The student of the week will use my Ipad to take pictures each day and write a couple of sentences about the photo.  So, the following Monday, you will see even more pictures of the kids.  This week's student is Wesley.  (if your child has already been chosen student of the week, then he/she will be able to be the guest blogger later on in the year)  Many thanks to Dickinson's  Computer Specialist, Jennifer Mitchell, for this wonderful idea.  I am so excited about this!!!!!

We will take our class picture on Tuesday, October 25th.  Please send your child to school in a red uniform shirt and khaki bottoms.
