Good Afternoon,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families. I am so
excited to begin this next amazing chapter of our Kindergarten experience
through Advent & December with your children. Please read ahead for all
important information for this week & weeks ahead:
Tomorrow is our next TAG day. We are raising money for our Sister School,
Saint Cecilia’s in Kenya, to help them have enough money to celebrate
with an awesome Christmas party. Your child may dress down tomorrow
with no uniform, we kindly ask that you send at least a $1 donation
in their homework folder labeled for TAG day.
Next Tuesday, 12/07, we will be having the Santa Shop in the
big school run by Mrs. Higgins! Order forms went home last week,
if you are interested in having your child shop that day, please
send in all forms & payment ASAP. There is a link on the website’s
Friday Folder if you need an additional order form.
A flyer regarding our Kindergarten Christmas Gift Exchange went
home today in homework folders. Please send in the wrapped gift
labeled “from” and your child’s name no later than

Our next TOP SECRET but SUPER special Kindergarten day is coming
up next Friday, December 10th. Volunteer families will receive an

I will also be sending a digital permission slip by the beginning of
next week for children to enjoy the yummy treats.
