Thanksgiving is almost upon us.  Next Tuesday we will be celebrating with the rest of the school.  As you know, second grade is responsible for the mashed potatoes.  Thank you parents who have sent in a box of instant potatoes.  Also thank you to the parents who have already sent the $6.50 for the parent Christmas gift and a bag of small Christmas type candy for gingerbread houses.  I appreciate your promptness!
