Good Morning All!
What a glorious weekend it was–I hope you had a great one! A big thanks to all of you who were able to make it to Harvest Festival, it was an amazing event and kiddos and parents alike had a blast! I wasn’t sure Harvest Festival would make it back, but it’s definitely back and here to stay. A VERY special thanks to Gina who, along with Cari St Aubin (Grade 1 Owen’s mom), stepped up to make Harvest Festival happen and gave countless hours of her time. Thank you Gina! And, believe it or not, the kids earned enough coins to have pajama and movie day the day after Halloween–who would have guessed?! I’ll announce it to the kids at lunch.

A few notes to get you going:<\/strong>
1) Conversations<\/strong><\/em> on Wednesday and Thursday!<\/strong> Please take a moment to reach out to any family that has yet to sign up and see if you can get them on the schedule.

During Conversations please have your “Opt-in” email list (from Back to School night) handy so parents who have yet to sign up can be included. Next week I’ll collect all the lists and give them to class leads who can get them organized to share with your class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Jammie Jam will be November 1st!<\/strong> I think Lindsey shared the basics with you recently-this is going to be a fundraising fun run that will consist of an obstacle running course on the playground. Parents will be organizing and monitoring the course, all we need to do is encourage the kids to get sponsors and get them pumped up for the event. We’ll solidify the timing for that day soon, but in the meantime please be sure to get the sponsor sheets and envelopes out to your students today–they will be delivered to you before the end of the day. This is a new fundraiser for us but one I think will be really fun. I will be communicating the details with parents before the end of the day and they will be expecting the sponsors forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Reminder, and for those of you that are new, students at Amity do not dress up on Halloween. I’ll communicate this to parents but it would be good for you to do the same just to be sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) I will be out of town on Wednesday and Thursday but will be available if you need me–don’t hesitate to text or call.

5) Save the date–let’s grab Happy Hour <\/strong>on Friday, October 28 after school. It’s time to gather!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upcoming<\/strong>
October 19\/20<\/strong>:\u00a0Conversations<\/em>, No School
October 26:\u00a0<\/strong>Earthquake\/Fire Drill, 10:45am
October 28:<\/strong> Happy Hours, 3:30pm
