I hope you were able to join us at our terrific carnival last Friday night! Many thanks to Jill Hance (Ryan’s mom) and her team! I wonder where she found those mysterious fortunetellers!
Volunteers are needed to help with our Book Fair. It will be November 12 – 15, Monday – Thursday from 2:30 – 4:00 p.m. in the Library and on Thursday evening from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. during the PTA meeting. This is a great way to pitch in and help our school! Contact Rennie Meriwether at Renkm@aol.com.
Connect-Ed is a new calling system put in place by RISD to enhance communication between the district, schools and parents. I will sometimes leave you a message telling you about an upcoming event, or notifying you in case of an emergency. Dr. Simmons, our superintendent, may leave you a message. The system also automatically calls when your child is absent. Please continue to send a note the day your child returns from being out sick.
Volunteers are needed to help in our Library. You are welcome anytime. Drop in when you come up to have lunch with your child or come during your child’s library time. Questions? Contact Belinda Reeder at 214-908-8918 or belinda@airmail.net.

Thank you for so many gift certificate donations for our staff drawings! We have had donations from Beverly Curtis (Evan’s mom), Georgina Brewer (Jace’s mom), Natalie Yancy (Noelle and Nylan’s mom), Linda West (Simon and Nick’s mom), Madeleine Le (Jacob’s mom) and others that are just left anonymously on my desk!

Thank you, also, to Tram Nguyen (Hailey and Jordon’s aunt) for her donation of lots of extra school supplies!
