Weekly News from October 13-15

A PEEK AT THE WEEK
This week we will be finishing our fire safety unit. The children know a lot about this topic and are eager to share their knowledge with you. Expect to see special fire safety book made by the students this week. Weather permitting, we will end this unit with a visit from the Parkers Prairie fire fighters. They will share their knowledge of fire safety rules with us. I know the children will love to see the fire trucks and equipment.

Thank you, fire fighters, for taking the time to visit us. We appreciate it so much!


UPCOMING DATES
Just a reminder, book orders are due on October 15th.
MEA is scheduled for Thursday and Friday, October 16 and 17.

SPECIAL MEETING BEING HELD ON OCTOBER 20TH
On October 20th, at 7:00 P.M. in the elementary school gym the school board and administration will be hosting an informative meeting focusing on the “STRONG SCHOOLS FORM OUR FUTURE” campaign. The board and administration will be presenting information regarding the November 4th referendum vote. Please mark your calendar! Be informed about the need for this action.

NEXT ON THE AGENDA
I hope you have time to enjoy the beautiful fall days. Pumpkins, leaves, harvest time and our beautiful fall weather are topics we will be discussing as we continue to learn about this beautiful season. We will end the month learning about how animals are preparing for colder weather.


FALL PARTY
We will be having a fall party on October 31. If you would like to send treats for the day that would be great! We have 20 students in our class. Please remember, if you send candy, it should be individually wrapped pieces and store bought.

Have a great week!
