F.Y.I.
*Collection for Haiti continues this week.
*Pep Rally on Friday at 3:00 p.m.
*Don't forget that Feb. 12 is not a school day for students.

Homeroom F.Y.I.
*We will celebrate Valentine's Day on February 10 (I will be out the 11 and students are out the 12). We WILL NOT have a party. I will allow a short amount of time before dismissal for students to pass out cards/candy, if they wish. THIS IS NOT MANDATORY. All I ask is that students have enough cards/candy for all 31 students in our class and that they not address them individually. For example, they should leave the To: part blank and just fill in the From:
This will save us time and allow us this short celebration of my favorite holiday!

Don't forget our NO NUTS policy if you purchase candy for the class.

Thank you!
