Hello! Just a couple notes for the weekend. First, please make sure that your student is keeping up with the homework and doing all of their ongoing assignments (reader response journals, daily reading, and Khan Academy notebooks). Second, several pieces of backpack mail went home today. One of the sheets was about the Hot Chocolate Jog-a-thon which will be taking place on November 16th. Please help us to collect donations for our sports teams and physical education department! Donations should be turned in on FRIDAYS to me. One of the other pieces of backpack mail was about a Papa John's fundraiser that will be going on this weekend. If you order pizza from them and tell them the code BUDLONG, 20% of the sale will be donated to our school. Last, don't forget that picture retakes will be on Monday! I hope you have a wonderful weekend and look forward to seeing everyone back here on Monday!
