Each year Prairieview School adopts needy families of cancer patients who struggle financially. This year we have a special family which includes a third grader who is struggling with cancer. Specific information about this project and our family was handed out. Have you seen this yet? If not, please ask your child about it.
The economy is difficult right now, but if you are able to brighten Christmas for this family in any way, it would be greatly appreciated!
Conferences are scheduled for November 30th, December 1st, and December 2nd. If you are in need of a reminder of your time, please let me know. Thanks!
Information about the last day prior to winter break was handed out to the students. Have you seen it yet? If not, please ask your child about it. The school will once again be going to the Tivoli Movie Theater to watch a movie that day. Permission slips and money need to be returned.
YEARBOOKS: Now’s the time to place your orders. Yearbooks are $10.00 and the deadline for your order is Tuesday, December 1, 2009. 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. If you have multiple students, please fill out one for each child. Yearbook order forms went home with your child on November 12th. 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 $10.00. It is very important that you put this information on the envelope; Lifetouch does not know who your child’s teacher is. Prairieview Yearbook orders were not paid at registration!
