School Uniforms
We realize that the economy has put everyone in financial stress.
Therefore we are changing our uniform regulations to the following:
Students are no longer required to wear Dennis Uniforms shorts or
long pants. They MUST still be khaki or navy only and an
appropriate length. Please no short shorts for girls.
Uniforms shirts are still required, you may purchase t-shirts, polo
shirts or long sleeve shirts from Dennis. It is also highly
recommended that you purchase the sweatshirt from Dennis also.
We are also going to allow students to wear jeans on Fridays along
with their uniform shirt. Parents, its up to you to make sure
your child is dressed appropriately.
Please remember to label your jackets and sweaters.
Fall Festival
Check with your homeroom teacher to find out what your classroom is
doing on Thursday, October 29th. Check your teacher's blog as
they have updated information.
No School for Students
Friday, October 30th there is no school for students.
HoneyBaked Ham
The big winner for sales of HoneyBaked Ham is Laurie Sutherlin.
She sold over $944.00 worth of gift certificates. Thank you to
all the families who participated. Our proceeds are $2000.00.
If you haven't turned in your sales slips and money yet, please do
so before Friday.
Ink Cartridges
Thank you to all the families who are sending in their used ink and
toner cartridges. For the months of July and August, we have
been able to turn them in and exchange them for 86 reams of paper!
Way to go parents! Thanks for your support!
Classrooms Adopting a Soldier
We have two or three classrooms who are adopting a soldier.
They are asking that parents send in shampoo, conditioner, body
wash, soap, razors, toothpaste, mouthwash, lotion, baby wipes, white
ankle socks, face wash, clear nail polish, foot scrub, foot powder,
facial lotion, magazines, books, hair spray/gel and black hair ties.
These can be travel size. We would like to have everything
turned in by November 6th so we can mail these off to our soldier
and he/she can have them by Thanksgiving. Thank you in advance
for your support of our troops!
2010 Gala Silent Auction Committee Meeting
If you would like to be on the silent auction committee (obtaining
items) we will be having a meeting at the MSHS on Tuesday, November
3rd at 8:30AM. Please join us and we will set up groups to
obtain different categories. If you cannot attend but still
want to be on the committee, please e-mail Beverly at
bcox@princeton-house.org
Sick Children
If we send your child home sick, please keep them home for 48 hours
instead of the 24 hours we have required in the past. We are
trying to keep everyone healthy. We have had cases of students
having the swine flu and also staff having the swine flu. When
the staff are out, it really makes it difficult on everyone.
If your child has the swine flu or type A flu, please keep them home
for 5 days.
