Help Out Our Schools

We have quite a few announcements to make!

First, a reminder that this weekend has two (2) programs for the Grade 6 Events committee.  One is the "Trunk or Treat" being held Friday night in the parking lot of the school, and the second is the "Halloween Dance" being held on Saturday night in the APR.  Both events require prior registration, so we hope that you were able to purchase your tickets!

Second, Moore Elementary has signed-up for the A+ School Rewards program through Giant Food Stores.  A letter will be coming home this week providing instructions on how you can link your Bonus Card from Giant to Moore in order to raise money for the school!

Third, the end of the first Marking Period will be Friday, November 4th.  Report Cards will be sent home on Monday, November 14th and conferences are scheduled for November 15th through the 18th.  

Fourth, there are early dismissals (noon) on the following days:
     Friday, October 28th
     Tuesday, November 15th
     Wednesday, November 16th
     Thursday, November 17th
...and no school for students on:
     Friday, November 18th
     Thursday, November 24th
     Friday, November 25th
     Monday, November 28th

Lastly,  Ms. Lisa Jones, a Kindergarten teacher at Lehigh Elementary School hasI entered a "Del Monte Teacher Monday" contest in order to win $1000 for her classroom, and possibly other prizes for their school.  She is in need of votes!!  The contest runs from Monday to Monday - ending on November 7th.  The website to check out is Fruits.com.  You must set up an account to vote - which is very easy.  Look for her essay and vote every day.  We try to help all of the schools in our District in some way, so why not take a moment and vote for Ms. Jones!

Moore would like to thank all of the volunteers that have been helping in the cafeteria, and through PTA with the Pumpkin Painting and Parent Visitation.  We certainly could not do many of the events and programs we offer if it were not for you!  Thanks, you are greatly appreciated!
