Fall Party & Red Ribbon Spirit Week!

During the week of October 27th-31st, we'll be celebrating Red Ribbon Week, a special week focused on promoting drug-free, healthy living! Each day will have a fun theme to show our school spirit and support for making positive choices. Uniform bottoms are required Mon-Thurs.

To wrap up the week, we'll also be celebrating the season with a Fall Party on Friday, October 31st! I'm so excited to make this a fun and festive event for our class. I'll need your help to make it happen, though! More information about how you can get involved will be sent out soon.
