October 20


VEHICLE DAY WAS A BLAST! And not just because I got to go up in a cherry picker! Even though we had to listen to the honking of the semis all morning, Vehicle Day was a huge success. The weather was great and we had all sorts of different vehicles to look at. Students got to spray cones down with a water hose and watch their teacher get the fear of her life riding in the cherry picker! Students were also able to blow the horn on a huge semi tow truck!

Homework packets and conference forms went home on Friday Folder reports. Although some students do not need a conference, you are more than welcome to request one.
