On Wednesday, students throughout the school enjoyed Game Time to celebrate meeting another positive behavior goal.
This is a reminder that Monday, November 4th and Tuesday, November 5th are student holidays and teacher workdays.
Don't forget--Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 3rd at 2 a.m. and you will have to set your clocks back one hour (“fall back”).
The next time you are in our building, please stop by the lost and found table in the lobby. We already have a large collection of items. Anything not claimed by Friday, November 8th will be donated to a charity.
If you have family members who are active duty military or veterans, we invite you to send in pictures of them. Pictures will be used to create a display in our lobby to honor those who have served our country in the military. If you have any questions, please email 3rd grade teacher Amelie Krikorian at alkrikorian@fcps.edu
