Classroom Parties

Valentine's Day will be celebrated in the classroom on Thursday, February 12th. Room parents have communicated specific student counts for Valentines distribution.  

Students can get creative and may bring a Valentine’s box that fits inside a grocery bag. If you have extra boxes or decorations to donate, please drop them off at the front desk by February 6th.

For clarification, students will NOT be making Valentine bags or boxes in art class this year. This year it will be MYOB (make your own bag/box)

If you have questions, please contact your room parent or email: Lauren Holmstrom
