Thanks to all of you who donated snacks and Valentine goodies to our classroom. I appreciate your generosity!
I will be sending home a Valentine list with your student by the end of the week.
This is their last classroom Valentine Party....It probably seems like just yesterday that you were doing Valentines for Kindergarten!
I hope that your child has as much fun as I used to picking out Valentines.
VALENTINES that have candy are allowed but the candy will be taken home, not eaten at school.
Please make sure they give one to everyone!
