Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving the students were sooooo busy. First, we colored pictures and wrote friendly letters to soldiers overseas!!! The students were so kind with their words. We discussed the sacrifices the soldiers go through everyday for us back in the United States. I was proud of the words of gratitude the students wrote to these soldiers. Second, we practiced, practiced, practiced for our WONDERFUL Thanksgiving Celebration. Thank you parents for such a HUGE turnout. You exceeded our expectations. I thought the students did a wonderful job. They were AWESOME!!! Last, we started collecting pajamas for children and adults who are in foster care, orphanages, and shelters this holiday season. We are sending all of the collected pajamas off to be paired with a book by Scholastic Book Clubs. This is a great opportunity for everyone to get involved in during this season of giving. Please remember to send your flame resistant pajamas by December 3rd.

Thanks for the donations!!! Can't wait to see how many pairs we can collect!!!!
