Hot Lunch this week
Monday, Nov 30
1 Hot dog on bun, baked beans, fresh broccoli/cauliflower with ranch, fresh apple slices
2 Nacho bag
Please remind your children that, if they order hot lunch, they must pick up the item they ordered. We do not want to waste food, and we need to keep accurate counts so that what is ordered in the morning is available at lunch.
Learning Commons News
Scholastic Book Fair is coming! Tuesday through Friday, Dec. 1-4 in the front lobby! Brochures have been sent home with students. Each class will have time next week to make their “wish lists” at the book fair. Hopefully these lists will help everyone with book selection. Books always are great Christmas gifts!
If you would like to help out at the Book Fair, please let us know. We’d love to have a few parent helpers.
