we have focused on giving and making presents for our families as well
as our big buddies here at school. We will remind students that we want
our school to be welcoming and harmonious. We do not bring in purchased
gifts for classmates or big buddies at school. We did have the chance to
bring in an unwrapped toy for the HOPE Toy Drive. And we do receive
treats from teachers, so make sure you bring your folder and your tote
bag to school every day including the 20th! Students will wear “fancy”
non-uniform attire to school on December 20th instead of their formal
uniform. Girls should be in safe shoes (no heels). We will attend Mass
with our buddies and then have a special treat before the concert.
Parents will pick up the kindergartners from our classrooms immediately
following the concert and be dismissed for the Christmas break.
