News and Notes:
Christmas Party
Our Christmas party will be two parts. On Monday, Dec. 19th, we will deliver our collected goods to Harvester Christian Church and put together treat bags. A permission form is in your child's Friday folder. We will celebrate Jesus' Birthday on Thursday, Dec. 22nd. This portion of our Christmas party will be in the classroom. This is also a half day of school.
Advent Service
Our Advent service is on Wednesday, Dec. 14th at 10am and 7pm. The boys and girls have been working so hard! Please continue to work with your first grader on his/her part - saying it LOUD an SLOW. Students will wear regular school uniform for the 10am service, and church clothes for the 7pm service.
If there are a couple of volunteers that would be able to sit with us during the evening service, it would be greatly appreciated! Please let me know if you are available.
Please have your child in the church basement no later than 6:50pm. There will be no teacher on site until 6:45pm so do not leave your child unattended if brought down prior.
Stocking Stuffers
As we approach the half way point in our school year, many of the students could use new markers and glue sticks. These make GREAT stocking stuffers if you would like to provide that for your child.
Bobcat Spirit day
Friday, December 16th is Bobcat Spirit Day! Wear any Zion shirt with regular uniform bottom.
100th Day Celebration
For the hundredth day of school, we will need 100 cereal boxes. Please save your boxes and send them to school!
