Focus of the Week We are taking a break from the Magic Tree House this (short!) week. We will talk about winter and do some art projects! Notes/Reminders ·      A note from the office: Families are reminded that students must be in classrooms by 8:15 to avoid being marked tardy. If you arrive after 8:15 you must enter through the front door and check in with Ms. Vicki before coming to the classroom. Also, parents need to say goodbye at the door and/or office, they should not walk students to the classroom.          ·      Indoor arrival: On “indoor                arrival" days I will still open the                patio door at 8:10 if you would                 rather come in that way! ·      Pajama Day! Kindergarten will have pajama day on Tues 12/23. Kids can come to school in their PJs and are welcome to bring in a stuffed animal! We will watch a movie and eat popcorn. ·      Ms. Magni’s last day will be Tues 12/23. We will miss her!
