Read to Feed!!!

We are participating in Heifer International's Read to Feed program as seen in the literature sent home last week.  Please encourage your family, friends, coworkers, and everyone you know to sponsor your child to help raise money to help those less fortunate.  Your child already reads nightly, so filling out the book list is the easy part.  Use this link to send out to encourage people to donate:  http://readtofeed.heifer.org/jbma  Money and checks are due Dec. 14th though online fundraising will continue through the new year.

Thank you!!!

A few other tidbits:

• Field Trip forms are being sent home - all 3 forms need to be completely filled out and returned as soon as possible.  $21 is due with them as is your child's shoe size.
• Parents of boys - please reteach and continually reinforce the use of toilets (per previous blog post).
• Early dismissal at 1:00 on Thursday, Dec. 20th - no aftercare provided.
• Please ensure that your child has an extra pair or two of socks in their backpack at all times, just in case.
• Please update all teachers and Joan (at joan@jbma.org) with any and all e-mail and phone changes.
• Please check with your child to find out if their inside PE shoes at school still fit and/or need to be replaced.
• All jackets, sweaters, lunchboxes, etc. should have your child's name in them so they can be returned if lost.
