NEW *Puma Pals Club Update*

Puma Pals Club sign-up is closed! We received a number of sign-ups and have a limited number of spaces available to ensure that the grade levels are balanced. Please check your email for confirmation that your child will participate. We will be opening another section of Puma Pals in the spring. First and Second grades will meet in the multipurpose room after school starting 10/13. Third and Fourth-grade families will be contacted closer to your start date in December. Pick up for the club will be in front of the school at 4:00 pm.  Please be on time for pick-up.  Please contact Ms. McHugh [email protected] or Miss Weil [email protected] with any questions.


REPEAT *Upcoming Dates in October*

Tuesday, 10/25 ~ Early Release

Monday, 10/31 ~ Halloween Parade and Parties


REPEAT *Halloween Costumes* 

Our Halloween festivities will be here before we know it.  We look forward to students dressing in their Halloween costumes for our Halloween Parade and classroom parties on Monday, Oct. 31st.  Please help us with the following costume guidelines.  Students will change into their costumes after their lunch period at school.  Please ensure that your child can get the costume on with no or minimal help.  

Costumes must be appropriate for school.  If costumes are not school-appropriate the student will be asked to remove their costume.

  • Please no masks, blood, super scary stuff, general ickiness, or weapons
  • Please no cigars or cigarette items
  • Please no bare tummies
  • Please keep hair coloring and make-up simple

***All costume changes will occur at school, not at home.***


REPEAT *Cooler Weather is Upon Us*

The leaves are providing us with a beautiful backdrop during recess.  Please make sure that your child has the appropriate clothes as the temperature drops.  Dressing in layers is always a good idea.  Please label your child’s items so that if they find their way to the Lost and Found, the item can be returned to your child.
