Weekly Update November 26, 2012

Reminder--Students need a USB at school at all times.


Thank-you for attending the Student Led Conferences on Nov. 20 and 21. It is always important for your child to share their accomplishments with you.

Thank-you to our drivers for MTYP on Nov. 22:  Mrs. Mourant, Mr. King, and Mrs. Wappler.  Without you it would have been a cold, slippery walk to The Forks.

CLWR (Canadian Lutheran World Relief) November collection items: sets of 10 un-sharpened pencils, a sharpener and an eraser. The collection bucket is outside of Ms. Meilleur's door.

Please also remember Rehimet, our Compassion Canada sponsor child. We would like to collect $1.00/month from the students. If it is easier to bring it as one lump sum, please do so.
