16 December 2009 Tonight is our St. Thomas Christmas concert to begin at 6:30pm. Children are invited to come at 6:15, no earlier please. We will be sitting on the far side of the gym under the basketball hoop. Please drop your children off there, and also please let me know when you leave with your child. They will wait with me on stage for you to come pick them up. Our classroom Christmas party will be on Tuesday, December 22 at 2:00pm. Mrs. Lapierre is making arrangements for some snacks. Thank you in advance! You all do so much to make our classroom experience a positive one. Since Christmas is around the corner, I wanted to give everyone a heads up about our Vacation Reading challenge. The second graders can earn prizes by completing reading activities over the holidays. The challenge will be sent home on Tuesday and will also be posted under “Homework” on my website. See you tonight! Brigette Dumont
