     Hopefully everyone survived Halloween.  Now it's time to focus our attention on the Holiday Fair.  This year our classroom is doing a "Sports" basket for the raffel.  We are asking families to send in items for the basket.  If possible, we would like to have the items in by November 27th so the baskets can be wrapped before the fair.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is our largest fund raiser of the year.  As always, thank you for all that you do.  It is your help and support that helps our school be the wonderful place it is

Holiday Fair - Part 2

Each classroom also helps out with a table or refreshments.  Our class is in charge of the drink table, so we are in need of some supplies.  We are looking for 10 cases of water (.5L size), 5-6 pounds of coffee (ground), non-dairy creamer, sugar packets, and Splenda packets(or any sugar substitute).  If you are able to help with the supplies, please send in/drop off items by Tuesday, November 27th. Additionally, we are looking for volunteers to work at the drink table - if possible, for an hour at a time.  The table will open at 9:00, and close at 5:00.  Please email me at csteere@msad71.net if you are able to help work at the table. 

Conferences-

It is parent / teacher conference time again, and if I haven't already done so, I will be in touch with you over the next 3-4 school days to try to set a time and a day for your conference.

 As always, thank you for all that you do - I truly appreciate all of your efforts and support!

Hope all is well!

Update

Thank you to everyone who has already sent in items (and to those who have offered to send in items) for the sports basket and for the drink table.  We seem to be in pretty good shape.  We could still use sugar packets and a creamer of some sort.  We are, however, is desperate need of volunteers to man the table. So, if you are looking to have a good ol' fashion fun time (or if you have an hour to help out) just let me know.   As of right now we have two parents helping out, but they are not able to make it until the end of the day.

Thank you for all that you do!  We all appreciate your support!
