Hello Parents,
Last Wednesday marked the end of our first quarter. Administrators and teachers are looking forward to Parent - Teacher Conferences (next Monday, Nov. 13th at 6:00 pm in the ROC) and the chance to share with all of you how well your students have been doing. Report cards will be given to parents as they walk in the door. Their will also be an opportunity to order Applewood Wear (t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.).
Our fund raiser went very well thanks to the hard work of Mrs. Wadley, the Family Club moms, and of course the students who went out to sell. We were able to raise more than $4,300 which will cover the teacher salaries deficit! What a relief to know that we will be able to pay our fine teachers until the end of the year! Again thanks to everyone who worked so hard.
Thanksgiving is just around the corner! We have already begun to make plans for the ACS Thanksgiving Feast on Nov. 22. An attendance survey will be going out this week to try to get an estimate of the amount of people we can expect so we can plan for the amount of food needed. Parents, siblings, grandparents, friends are all welcome to attend :) I would like to meet with all Room Moms this Friday at 2:00 upstairs in the CEL (in the room next to the 4th grade room) to discuss the Feast and the Christmas Party.
