Week 9: Final Week of October

jackolanternDid you know that the first Jack O’ Lanterns were turnips?  Did you also know that Ireland is considered the birthplace of this very spooky and strange fall custom?  If you’d like to find out more fun facts, check out  40 Fun Facts about Halloween.

Our school Halloween celebrations will be held on Thursday of this week.  Please make sure you check your child’s class blog to find out details about the timing of the parties.   No school on Friday, October 31.  This is a day for teachers to finish report cards and prepare for Parent Teacher Conferences on November 3,5,6.  Report cards arrive home with each child on Monday, November 3.  The exception to this is Kindergarten — fall progress reports replace report cards.  Kindergarten teachers will instead share progress reports during the conferences.

I hope you are enjoying this beautiful fall weekend!
