October is flying by and before you know it, Halloween will be here! Parents
who’ve signed up (at Open House) have been notified about the upcoming party on the 31st. I’m confident the preparations are going well. Please make sure your child brings his/her costume to school in a bag on Halloween. No weapons please! Costumes should be easy to get on and off. Students will be changing in the classroom (we separate the boys and the girls.) If you have any questions, send me an email.
Conferences for home room students’ parents will be held this coming Monday -
Wednesday. I look forward to sitting down with all of you and having a great conversation about your awesome children!
Our Downers Grove field trip will take place on Thursday. We will visit the
historical museum and then take a bus tour which includes the historical sites. Lunch will be at Giordano’s pizza downtown and there will be time for a visit to McCollum Park as well. Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather!! We will be outdoors a good
amount of the time.
