Second Grade Friday News - November 21


Our chapel offerings until Christmas will be used for our Christmas Giving Tree project.  Our class will buy gifts for two or three children in the foster care system.  It will cost about $100 per child.  You may send an offering any day of the week – not just on chapel day.  Please be generous as we teach our children to share God’s love.  We have collected $222 so far!  Keep up the great work!  We are buying gifts for three kids.

On Tuesday, Dec. 2, the 2nd and 3rd grade classes will be going to the Arkansas Arts Center Children’s Theater to see The Velveteen Rabbit.   We will leave school at 9:15 and return around noon.  Students should wear their CLS spirit shirts that day.  We will eat lunch in our classrooms when we return, so all students must bring a lunch box.  Our drivers will be Dunn, Farah, Goldman, and McGilvray.
