The field trip has been moved to Friday due to high winds and rain on Tuesday. The sites are all set up and the students know how to do the science. The area where we are going are very wet. Boots are a must.
All of the students will be going to North Douglas for an all day science research project Friday this week. Students will need to bring boots, rain coats, hats and gloves by Thursday. On Friday they need to bring a sack lunch as they will be eating in the woods. If your child has a compass that they can bring that would be great.

Don't forget - 8th grade baby pictures are being collected to put in the yearbook. They can not be professional pictures. 8th grade ROPES proposal sheets need to be shared with parents and signed by Oct. 17th. Next week 8th graders may want to contact someone to be a coach for their ROPES project.

Conferences are next week on Tuesday and Wednesday. Please call your child's homebase teacher if you have any questions. 463-1899.

The book fair begins tomorrow and continues during conference time. Be sure to leave a bit of extra time during your conference visit to look at the books in the library.

Magazine sales are underway. If you renew your magazines through the school it helps us with activities throughout the year.

Magazine Sales: Magazine sales kicks off tonight! We hope that everyone sells magazines as this is our biggest source of funds for classroom projects, field trips, etc. Magazine sales are always met with mixed feelings, but the kids do see a return on the effort.

Don't forget (hopefully your 8th grader brought home the signature sheet), there will be a ROPES parent meeting Thursday between 5:00 and 6:00 pm at DZ (Rooms C201 and C210). 7th grade parents do not need to attend - unless you want to. Also, we are always on the lookout for people who are willing to be coaches for projects or panelists who help judge the projects at the end of the year).
