Important Notes:
The second graders are getting their singing voices ready! They will be singing at the 9 a.m. church service on Sunday, January 28th. Please meet Mr. DeVries in the music room by 8:45 in uniform ready to sing! You may pick up your child in the music room following the service. Please refer to Mr. DeVries’ recent note sent home.
I know some parents are considering coming in to be a Mystery Reader…. I strongly encourage you to do so! We can arrange a day convenient for you, morning or afternoon! Please share some time with us for it is a lot of fun for the children. I guarantee that you will have fun too!
God bless our week ahead!
