Lots of info today!

9/26--Hats off to College (hat day)
9/27--Time to Interview (dress up day)
9/28--We want to be... (dress up like your future career day)
9/29--College Gear (college tshirt day)

Halloween Program
Mark your calendars for the Kindergarten Halloween program!  An "official" invitation will be coming home soon, but until then mark your calendars for Thursday, October 27 from 6-7 pm.  Kindergartners will come dressed in Halloween costumes and put on a performance for families and friends! 


Operation Bundle Up

Operation Bundle Up to help needy children get warm coats for the winter is underway.  September 14th-October 7th, please consider donating any gently used, outgrown coats to school to donate.  You can drop them off in the bin outside the office, or send them to class with your child.


Superkids Test
We completed our first Progress Test for Superkids.  Overall, we did really well!  I sent the results home today.  If you have any questions, please let me know!

Zoo Permission Slips
Permission slips and money for the zoo will be due soon.  Please keep in mind we are in need of many parents to chaperone.  Volunteers will need to have a background check on file prior to the trip.  Also, because of lack of bus space, parents will need to meet at Creekside and then drive to the zoo.  Carpooling with other parents is a great idea to save on parking--the zoo will still charge you to park that day ($6) even though it's a field trip. :( 

Picture day is TOMORROW!
Thursday--dress nicely for picture day (don't forget to send in order forms if you want pictures!)  Even if you don't purchase pictures, all students will have their picture taken!

Superkids
Yesterday in Superkids we met a new Superkid...ALF!  Alf's name is short for Alfalfa.  The class thought that name was very funny!  Here are some questions to prompt discussion at home:

Who is the Superkid? ALF
What does he like to do? go on adventures
What letter is at the beginning of Alf? A
What sound does A make? /a/ like in apple--right now we are only doing the short vowel sound!

Walk-a-Thon
This morning Creekside students headed to the gym for the kickoff to our Walk-a-thon fundraiser.  Look for information about this event to come home in your child's folder tonight.  

Have a great night!
