                   Write an apology to Mr. Moy and Mrs. Herrera for the behavior during the fire drill today.



We had a firedrill this morning during gym time. The children were very noisy to the point where several of the children were screaming. This is unacceptable behavior. I take firedrills very seriously and the children should too. They know what the rules are and they can tell you what  they are. We have also discussed why these rules are important. It doesn't matter whether the drill happens when they are in the classroom with me or in another room. The rules are the same. Please discuss these rules with your child and impress on them the importance of following them.

Tomorrow is Red Ribbon Day. Dress down in red or wear school uniform.

There will be a Karate demonstration on Thursday. Gym uniforms can be worn.

Friday is Scarecrow Fest. If you did not order a hotdog lunch please send a lunch with your child. THERE ARE NO HOT LUNCHES ON FRIDAY. Your child may wear either a tech T-shirt or clothing depictuing the 70's.
