Team Mindcrafters - 8-27-13 Daily Update

Parents,

Birthday Treats.  Feel free to have your child bring in a birthday treat on or near their birthday.  Please keep in mind, however, that the teachers do not have kitchen items in our classrooms so please send napkins and something to cut or serve the treat if it is needed.   Better yet, keep it simple.  Cookies, pre-cut brownies, rice crispy treats make good simple, easy to pass out options.  We would also ask you to consider avoiding treats that have nuts or milk products as we have a couple students with allergies to these foods.


Reminders
  • Any parents interested in the TAP program for free after school tutoring, please contact your child's HR teacher
  • Send in Art Shirts
