Thank you to everyone who came to our field trip and our Thanksgiving lunch! We appreciated your help and the kids were so excited to show off their Indian outfits :-)
We will have Thanksgiving Break all next week. When we come back we will start with an AMSTI unit and begin Christmas.
When we return from Thanksgiving Break, please send a seasonally appropriate change of clothes back to school with your child. Please put them in a bag labeled with their name.
We will also be working on Christmas shirts in the coming weeks. If you have not sent in the three white shirts for your child please do so as soon as possible! We will also need red, green, and yellow fabric paint for our shirts. Any donations of fabric paint are appreciated!
We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and a great time with your family!

November 17 - November 21
We had a great time at the GOTCHA party last week! We got to play some Minute to Win It games and cheer on our teachers and classmates. We will continue our Thanksgiving unit this week and continue work on our Indian shirts! We are excited to show these to you at our Thanksgiving lunch on Thursday.
If you have already paid for our upcoming field trip to the Alabama Nature Center on Wednesday, November 19...thank you! If not, please send the permission and money ($8.50) by TUESDAY. We can not take money or permission slips the morning of the trip. We need chaperones and we hope you can join us as a chaperone. If you are planning on being a chaperone, you will need to wear comfortable shoes and dress warmly. That applies to students also. We will be hiking, fishing, and digging in the dirt!
We will be having our CES Thanksgiving Feast on Thursday, Nov. 20. Parents are welcome to come eat with us. The cafeteria staff needs your reservation by Nov. 18 so they can prepare for the crowd! Cost for adult meals that day will be $3.75. You may pay as you go through the serving line. Please let us know by Tuesday if you will be attending lunch that day with your child.
There are a couple of other things going on during this busy week! The Student Council is having an Iron Bowl contest. They are selling strips of tape for $1.00 to tape our principal to the wall! Just send in $1.00 with the form you received last week and your child chooses their favorite team. Student Council uses the money they earn for various things during the year to help our school.
By now, many of you have heard about a little girl in our community, Raven, who was in a tragic accident two weeks ago. The PTO is collecting money to give to Raven's family. Please consider donating. You can send in loose change or make a larger monetary donation ($5 or more) and it will be sent to the PTO. On November 20th, the PTO will add all their money and give it to Raven's family.
Next week we will celebrate Thanksgiving! We hope you have a great week off with your family!
Have a great week!
