Dear 2^nd Grade Parents,

FIELD TRIP tomorrow:  we will leave soon after prayers. Children may wear their full PE uniforms, an old pair of shoes, a hat, a sweatshirt/rain jacket.   The weather will cooperate tomorrow.  Please bring a bag lunch, a water bottle, and their car seats.  If parents can put a plastic bag in their child’s lunch bag so they may put the pumpkin in it from the field. They can feed the animals, but they will need a couple of quarters.  Drivers may want to put a blanket in their car for the ride home if the children get a little muddy.  A fully-Compliant driver may be teamed up with a non-compliant chaperone to help us out with carpooling.   Please bring the BIG car tomorrow.  

Remember:  Saint’s projects are due tomorrow.  The school will have Mass on Friday, Nov. 1st.  The 2^nd grade children may wear a “Saints” outfit OVER their uniforms to wear to Mass.  Then we will parade through the Middle School to show them our Saint projects.

Conference times for Nov. 8^th & 11^th are in the weekly folder.  If this is a problem, I can personally reschedule you for some time after or even before school.  Conferences are only 10 minutes long, so please have your questions ready.

Parents:  Check your busy schedules for the morning of Tues. Nov. 26th from 9:30-11:30 because the 2^nd graders, with the help of the 1^st graders,  will be hosting the school Thanksgiving Service and then we will have a small celebration together afterwards. A list of food items will go home next week for this celebration.  Everyone helps out in some way.

Also check your schedule for either: Sun, Nov 3^rd from 1:30-3:30   OR   Thurs., Nov.7^th 6:30-8:00 for your  Sacramental Prep Parent meeting in the dining hall.  No children, only 1 parent needs to attend.

Thank you to our Porter Store clerks who helped make the afternoon extra special.  We will do it a 2^nd time just before Christmas break.

God bless,

Mrs. Porter
