On Tuesday, February 14th, we will have a Valentine’s Day Party and Valentine Day Card Exchange.  We will be making Valentine’s Delivery Trucks for our valentine cards.  Please do not put any names on the valentine envelopes.  Each child sends one to everyone in the class, but they just sign their names on the back of the card and leave the envelope blank.  There are 12 children in the class.  The cards may be brought February 7th-9th. 

Will the following children’s mothers please send a special snack for our Valentine Party:  Owen Robbins, Isaiah Sasser, and Devin Silvers.

REMINDER:  If the North Lawrence schools are called off for weather reasons, we will also be called off.  Also, if there is a two-hour delay, class will be from 10:00-12:00.
