Fall Carnival
Our second WOHE fall carnival is quickly approaching! To help with the supplies that we will need to make the carnival a success, first grade is asking for donations for a “Family Fun Night” themed basket that will be auctioned off. We are also asking for Little Debbie or Hostess-like snack cakes to use for the cake walk game. If you can donate any of these items, feel free to just send them in your kiddos backpack! Thank you all so much for your support!

Community Time
Just wanted to update you on our assemblies this year. Instead of having a monthly Tiger Pride Assembly where every grade level gives out PAWS awards, we will be having Community Time assemblies every Monday morning at 8:40. At Community Time, only one or two grade levels will give out awards. So, first grade will be passing out their PAWS awards on the first Mondays of the month. That means our turn has finally arrived! I will send a note in your child’s folder or an e-mail, when you kiddo will be recognized!  I will definitely have a hard time deciding who to recognize! We are all working SO hard this year!
