A QUICK NOTE TO PARENTS:
It was so fun to read through all the different flex block proposals last night. There will be such a variety of things going on during Mondays! I sent home a note to some of you if your child thought there was a possibility you would be available and interested in helping out Mrs. Walton with the group of 7 girls who are cooking. Flex block is Monday from 2 to 3:15. If you can come even one Monday the next while to be a second pair of adult hands, I know Mrs. Walton would so appreciate the help. Please e-mail me and let me know if you are interested.
