Community Building Project:
I hope you all have had a chance to begin planning and working on your community buildings. We already have some community buildings in. Some students just got their pictures so they have more time to finish. I’d like buildings to be in by Friday, Oct. 20th – for those who have had their pictures for awhile already. If that doesn’t work for you, please make sure your buildings are in at least by Wed., Oct. 25th. They will be on display in the library. Parents who wish to view them are welcomed to stop by and check them out. Be sure you check in at the office first though. Thanks for all your help with this family project!

3rd Grade Penny Drive – Raising money for Heavenly Heart Dog Rescue of SG and the SG Dog Park – Our first total is $16.72. Keep those pennies (nickels, dimes, and quarters) coming! Let us know if you can take a penny collecting can to your place of business – or to another business in the area. The signs have a note taped to them that explain the fund raising project. Also, when you finish off a large can of coffee, please send it in with the lid so we can use it for our penny collections! Thanks!
