Dear Parents,
Our school auction is this Saturday night .  Our Origami picture project is finished and turned it.  It looks great! Hope to see you at the auction!
Our Veteran’s Day Program was such a great patriotic event.  The kids sounded so wonderful! Mrs. Maclean did a great job choosing the songs and preparing the students.  Many of those who attended were brought to tears seeing the children sing their hearts out for our country.
Second Quarter Mission Project - Operation Christmas Child
If you haven’t sent items for the shoe boxes for Operation Christmas child yet, you can still send in items on Monday.  On Wednesday we will have a packing party, which is where all the students put together the boxes to send to children all over the world!  

7th and 8th graders lead chapel this coming Wednesday, November 20
Today in religion, our class started working on the chapel they will lead this coming Wednesday, November 20.   The students are working in groups and are actually writing the message. If you can, please try to come to chapel next week to see them lead.

Here’s what’s happening in our classroom:
