At our Fall Faire meeting last week, parents helped our BPG decide on activities each class or grade will offer. The BPG has supplies for many of the activities, so please come see one of us or email [email protected] so we can meet and go through the BPG closet.
The BPG is offering each class $50.00 to help offset expenses for any supplies you need to purchase for your class activities. Again, contact us at the email above for details if needed.
Our next check-in meeting for Fall Faire will be on September 8th at 3:30 in Ms. Sundquist's room - at least one parent from each class is encouraged to attend.

1st Grade - Wands and Crowns

It's time to get the Kindergarten playground all setup. There are bushes to clear out and some small trees to be removed (nothing thicker than a forearm). THIS SATURDAY, the 22nd, at 10 am we will have some machines there to begin clearing it out. Please bring yourselves, large children, tools, machines, wheelbarrows, trucks or anything else to the school and help us get this playground setup in time for Kindergarten to begin on Monday! Post below with what you can bring to help, any time you can give is appreciated. See you then!

We're going to be at Birchtree tomorrow, Friday, August 14th, to organize the new BPG storage area. If you can come by sometime after 1pm we'll just be taking stuff out of the room, organizing it into bins and then back into the room it goes. We'd love any help from those who are available. Have a great day!
