     I do hope everyone enjoys this 3 day weekend and get that recharge! I have put out the Halloween special snack sign up sheet and as always you are ALL amazing! Thank you everyone who signed up, we are all so blessed for you all. You are all allowed to bring treats or surprises for the children's Halloween treat bags, if you have any questions just let me know! Please note there are no costumes allowed on those days, but feel free to have your child wear fun Halloween shirts!
     I am excited to send out home progress reports the following week. There will be a lot of information in each folder and I will send out details of everything that I send home. It is unfortunate we can not meet face to face for THIS time, but I have high hopes spring we will be able to! Please come to me if you ever have concerns or questions, this is a team effort!

Blessings to you all!
