  1. Reminder the Scholastic book orders are due by Jan.22
  2. We started our King & Queen incentive program. The program will focus on rewarding students for individual positive acts. When a student is seen doing something positive (helping someone; following rules;etc.) they will receive a positive role model slip. At the end of the week the slips will be turned and a drawing will take place each Monday for each grade level. The winners will have their names announced during the morning announcements and receive a reward. For more info be sure to ask your child.

Burger King–Yes, room 10 has earned a reward and they would like Burger King. So I told them that they could order off the value meal. I will pay for one, if they want another, they have to pay for it. If you are able to pick up the items, that would be greatly appreciated. I am thinking about doing it next Fri Oct 16th.
