Reminder: President Posters are due tomorrow! Please e-mail me at bcalcott@orionschools.us with any questions.
Please make sure your child is bringing cold weather recess gear. If it is 10 degrees (with wind child) or above, the students go outside for recess. I am still seeing some kids with no gloves! It makes me cold to look at them sometimes! So please... bundle them up in the morning!

Picture Day
Picture Day is on Tuesday. If you are planning to purchase the pictures, please make sure you send your child with the picture forms by Tuesday morning. If you do not send the form in, the company picks a default background.
