In a world of instant communication via text, e-mail and social media, the 3rd graders took time to write hand written letters. Each student chose a friend or family member to write a personal letter to. We discussed parts of a personal letter and learned how to address the envelopes. We took a walk to the post office to purchase stamps and position them correctly on our envelopes before placing them in the mailbox. We hope the recipients of our letters will relish in the heartwarming feeling one gets when receiving something personal in the mail.

Permission slips for theVoluntary Dental Clinic are due in the business office Tuesday, September 20.
Gold Standard Pirates of the week! PK-4 have earned 500 coins and will have their celebration next week!
