We Still Need Cakes!
 
 
We are still in need of cakes for the cake walk! If you just decided that you'd like to make or buy a cake to contribute, you're not too late!  Drop cakes off to the MU room tomorrow between 2:30 and 4:00pm.
 
Please contact Blanca Nelson at bnlnelson@hotmail.com if you'd like to make alternate drop-off arrangements. The cake walk cakes will be judged by grade level, so don't forget to fill out your forms! 
Book Fair Begins Tomorrow!

 

We invite you to visit our Scholastic Book Fair and experience a celebration of reading that provides families the opportunity to get involved in a universal mission: encouraging kids to read every day so they can lead better lives. This is an event that brings a wonderful selection of fun, engaging, and affordable books kids want to read. The more kids practice reading, the better they'll get. Hope you will join us in the library!
