*Supplies/Summer Packets/Forms: I know a lot of information went home last week. Please continue to send in all needed supplies, summer packets, and forms. Thank you!

*Snack: The first graders will have a small break for snack each morning (even on half days). Their morning snack must be a healthy snack. Some ideas for acceptable healthy snacks are fruit, granola bars, yogurt, pretzels, gold fish, and dry cereal (ex- cheerios...NO sugared cereals). The only drink allowed during snack time is water. Water bottles must have a sports top or pop up straw top. These types of tops help minimize spills.
