Dear Parents,
International Night was fun. It was good to see so many of you there. Your child liked learning about Morocco. I talked to several parents that night and they enjoyed learning about Morocco too. My daughter Marsha had a good time and she enjoyed sharing her experiences about Morocco with you.
Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day is almost here! A couple of students have asked about valentine exchange. In order to make the exchange work smoothly and easily, I would like you to have your child sign his or her name on each valentine, but do not write a name on the envelope. In this way, your child can pass out their valentines quickly, without fuss over which one belongs to whom. Candy attached to a valentine is fine, but please note that many children do send candy, and too much candy can cause an upset stomach.
The Valentine Party will be in the afternoon. I have mentioned to the room mom that I would like something simple. Not to many sweet things.
I want to take this opportunity to thank all the parents who drove students back from St. Patrick's Church to the school after our Catholic School's Week mass. The Mass was wonderful. I know your child enjoyed watching one of their classmates being baptized. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to help out.
Remember that there is no school next week, February 16 thru February 20.
