*Highlights magazine subscription order slips will be sent home this week.
Our classroom gets FREE STUFF just by me advertising this.
In order to get the FREE STUFF, I need the slip with a parent signature returned, even if you are NOT ordering.......Thanks!
*Scholastic Book Orders are being sent home this week too! There is no obligation to order.
Scholastic does offer some great reading selections at great prices.
