Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope you enjoyed our Thanksgiving play, "Jonathan's Thanksgiving"! The children all worked so hard to learn their parts. Isn't it a wonderful presentation of the Thanksgiving story? It's the perfect way to get in a "thankful spirit"!

We are all looking forward to our field trip to the Jarrell Plantation on Friday, November 20. We will leave FPD at 9:00 and return after lunch for an afternoon of Thanksgiving fun! Students (and chaperones) should wear comfortable walking shoes that will be appropriate for a rugged trail. Thanks to drivers for accompanying us on this great, educational field trip. Please remember to send in an apple by Friday for the homemade applesauce. If you are helping cut the apples before we leave, please come to your child's classroom at 8:00.

Friday, November 20 is a dress down day. Students may wear jeans and a spirit top. Everyone bring $1 and/or a pair of new socks or undergarment to benefit Casa Hogar Orphanage in Acapulco, Mexico. Money will be used to purchase a new washing machine for the orphanage.


 We hope you reviewed the note that came home about our December mission project. (It is linked on the right under field trip.) Please encourage your children to earn money for our “Jesus box”. Remember the money collected by each class will be used to buy gifts for needy children and teenagers. 

 STUDENTS SHOULD PRACTICE MULTIPLICATION FACTS EVERYDAY FOR 10 MINUTES! 

A note from Mrs. Krejci about costumes for the Christmas program on Thursday, December 10...
