Dear Parents,
Once again, Prairieview students and staff are participating in a holiday service project to help out those less fortunate than us. We are collecting items for a family of who struggles financially. Your child has received a letter with all the details! We will be collecting donations until Wednesday, December 5th! I hope our class can make this a special holiday for this family!
YEARBOOK: Now’s the time to place your orders. Yearbooks are $9.00 and the deadline for your orders is Monday, December 3, 2007. No orders will be accepted after that date. Please make checks payable to Lifetouch. Please make sure your student’s name, teacher’s name and grade level are marked on the order form. Yearbook order forms went home with your child on November 15th and there a few extra envelopes available; please try not to lose them. If your child loses it, you can send an envelope with the following information on it: student’s name, teacher’s name and grade level along with a check made payable to Lifetouch for $9.00. It is very important that you put the information on the envelope; Lifetouch does not know who your child’s teacher is.

It's a good idea to do an on-going review after each lesson. This makes studying easier when it's test time!
