Good evening first grade parents.
Tomorrow, November 2nd, is our first grade field trip. Field trip buses will depart the school at 9:10 and students will need to be picked up at school at 5:00PM. Please remember that county policy does not allow for parents not chosen as a chaperone to join the trip.
Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a lively celebration in which families honor deceased family members. This colorful holiday is mostly celebrated in Mexico and parts of the United States on November 1st and 2nd 🌎. Families create altares, or altars, with pictures of family members who have passed and ofrendas (offerings) of their favorite things 🏠🍇🍫. Día de los muertos is a joyful time that helps people remember the deceased and celebrate their memory. "Coco" and "The Book of Life" are great family movies that are all about this special holiday! 💐💀💐 If you would like to learn more about Día de los Muertos:
