Team Mindcrafters Daily Update 9/23/13

Parents,

Don't forget that we are on a two hour delay schedule tomorrow. 

Headphones.  If possible, please send in a pair of earbuds for your child to use with the iPads and laptops this year.  Please put them in a sealable baggie with their their name on it.  These are not needed right away, so its not necessary to rush out and get some. If you could have your child bring a set in the next couple weeks, that would be fine.

Reminders:
  • Book Orders.  Due September 30th.  Use class activation code: GJLYC to order online.  This is open to both classes.
  • Carnival Donation Items: Mr. Pransky's class theme is BBQ, Mrs. Dressel's class theme is Car Wash.
Have a great night,
Mrs. Dressel and Mr. Pransky
