A note from Ms. Poteet…
Harmony has started our annual Canned Food Drive. Please send in non-perishable goods. All of the food will go to needy families in
Oldham County. We are collecting canned
goods (soups, meats, vegetables, juice, fruit, pasta sauce, pie filling),
cereal, rice, baby food, Jello, pudding, packaged food, beans, croutons, dried
fruit (raisins, apricots), nuts, and any other non-perishable food. Thank you for
your support in helping out children to learn about caring and sharing with
others. The food needs to be sent in by
December 2, 2011.
Our class has adopted a 16 year old girl for the
holidays. She enjoys painting her nails,
wearing jewelry, and hanging out with her friends. She attends one of the Oldham County’s middle
schools. If your family would like to
help this young lady, please send in the Husky-Helping House flyer sent home
last week in our Wednesday Folder, send me a note, or e-mail me. I will let you what the child needs and what
size clothes she wears. Please don’t
just send an item in, because we want to make sure all of her needs are taken
care of. Thanks for all of the families
who have already sent in the flyer pledging to donate an item. All
items need to be sent in by December 14, 2011.
Our big performance is finally here! On Tuesday we will perform our Thanksgiving
Play at 11:20 am. All families and
friends are invited. You are welcome to
stay afterwards for lunch. Don’t forget
to have your child wear their costume to school. Below is a description of the costumes. If you forgot which character your child is
playing, please call me.
Pilgrims – Boys will need to wear black pants and
a black shirt. Girls will need to wear a black dress or skirt and shirt. Girls
may also wear white aprons, but they are not required. We will make hats and
collars at school.
Native Americans – Boys and Girls will need
to wear dark clothing. We made head dresses and vests here at school.
