I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. I can’t believe the first half of the school year is behind us! Everyone was hard at work organizing and volunteering our many wonderful programs.

In October, we had our 3 week PARP program. The participation level was amazing. Some of our classes had 100% student participation. Great job! The Book Fair, which also took place in October, was a huge success. I hope everyone is enjoying reading and sharing their new books. In November, we had our Winter Laser Light Show. Everyone enjoyed a wonderful laser show set to fun and hip music. Finally, in December, we had our Annual Holiday Fair. The children had a variety of items to choose from and there were many vendors in attendance selling wonderful handmade crafts. I especially would like to thank Mr. Loguercio and Mr. Tomaszewski for taking time out of their busy schedule to volunteer at our Holiday Fair. They were a big hit with all of our students. I hope everyone had the opportunity to enjoy these fun events. Thank you to everyone who volunteered countless hours to make sure that they were such a success.

I would like to send out a special thank you to all the 4^th grade students and their families who attended our November PTA meeting. The 4^th graders, along with Mrs. Dayton, performed their Veteran’s Day program. It was a wonderful show and the students did a fantastic job!

Thank you Mrs. Dayton.

There are many events still ahead. In the upcoming months, we will have our Family Fun Night, Family Movie Night, and Family Dance and of course our 9^th Annual Fashion Show. Please come out and enjoy these wonderful events. You won’t want to miss them.

Again, I look forward to seeing everyone at our meetings and programs. Please feel free to contact me with any thoughts, questions or ideas. By working together we can make the second half of the school just as great of a success.
