We are learning about acts of kindness and will be participating in a community service project. Please be sure to watch for Mrs. Troman's note about 'Socktober' in this week's newsletter.
If you are able to send in a pair of new socks with your child, please know we are collecting them for families that may need a little extra help right now, homeless individuals and for local shelters, etc.*
Many of us take putting socks on each day for granted ~ for others, it is a struggle to put food on their tables, let alone socks on their feet.

Listed below are the books that I recorded to be shared with each grade level. I will also be discussing this subject with the students during a class lesson at a later date.
Thank You so much for your continued support!
