Happy Halloween everyone! I look forward to our party and parade later today. Thank you to all the moms/dads who worked so hard to put together our classroom party: from food, beverages, and paper goods to games!! The children are very excited!! Enjoy the actual day trick or treating tomorrow. I hear rain is in the forecast. Booooooo….
Conferences will be held this coming week November 2 - 4. I look forward to sitting down with each of you and discussing your fabulous children.
If anyone has a veteran in their family, we are inviting veterans to come into PV on Veteran's Day, 11/11, to say the Pledge of Allegiance with our students. If you do, please let me or Mr. Pagel know.
We are also looking for a parent representative to help our PBIS team by organizing various charitable events throughout the school year. Let me know if you are interested and I'll connect you with the appropriate people.
