Announcements:

1. Is there anyone that would be willing to come in on Wednesday and watch the students from 2 - 3:30 pm? I would be eternally thankful!

2. We will decorate the classroom after Thanksgiving break for Christmas. All students are encouraged to bring an ornament to decorate our classroom tree. They will get these back!

3. We will pick names for the Christmas exchange on Wednesday so that students can get up at 5 am to shop for that special gift.

Blessings on your evening!
