December 9-14

Gingerbread houses:  Thanks to the generosity of a parent, we have 13 gingerbread houses.  We will make these on Thursday, December 20 at 8:30 am.  We should finish between 10 and 10:30.  We will then take the finished houses to Mission Gardens for the residents to enjoy.  We will need parent volunteers for this project. I would like to have 13 moms or dad (who are fingerprinted and safe environment trained) to help us.  So far we only have a few volunteers; please email me if you would like to join us. It will be a fun way to earn hours.

My apologies for the grades not being updated as often last week.  I have been fighting a sinus infection and missed 3 days.  I will get back on track as soon as possible.
