Weekly Blog 10/29

Dear Wines Families,

There is lots of important information in today’s email, so please take a few moments to read through it.

Halloween
One final reminder that we will be celebrating Halloween Friday afternoon. Our parade through the neighborhood will take place at 2:00 and most classroom activities begin after the parade. We will parade unless it is raining too hard—the cold weather won’t stop us! All costumes must be friendly—no fake blood or weapons. As always, if you have any questions about the appropriateness of a costume or prop, then it probably isn’t appropriate.

No School next Tuesday
There is no school next Tuesday, November 4th.

Science and Builders Fair
Our Science and Builders Fair is next Thursday evening. We are still looking for more submissions. Attached to today's email is the registration form as well as a document with some great ideas for projects. You can also find these forms on our PTO website www.winespto.org.


Wines Spirit Wear!
Spirit Wear is here!  We are trying a new online ordering system this year and believe it is going to work out better than ever.  Follow the link below to order t-shirts, sweatshirts and caps all with our Wines Elementary school logos.  This year, for the first time, we are offering ladies cut t-shirts as well as dry wick "performance" t-shirts for kids and adults!  Look through the cart at the link below and place your order directly online.  If you prefer to pay by check, print out your cart with your choices and bring it in to the office with a check for the amount due.  Orders are due by the end of the day, Friday, November 7, and will be delivered to students' classrooms the week of Thanksgiving.  Any questions please contact Cindy Warren (cindywarren8@yahoo.com) or Gail Epstein (epsteing@comcast.net).


Great Ideas Grant Submission Deadline Nov. 1 (that’s Saturday!)
Our PTO loves to say “yes” to Great Ideas. If you or your child has a Great Ideas grant idea, please fill out the very quick online submission. The link for adult form can be found at https://docs.google.com/a/aaps.k12.mi.us/forms/d/1vjBwmeRb307zzSeDnjUD_tZhC3whtzl1dc6hLAxEQhI/viewform



Walk to School Friday
 Our final Walk to School opportunity will be this Friday. It has again been a great October tradition. I hope some folks have gotten into a new walking habit and we have more walkers on a daily basis! Big thanks to Anita Fontana for organizing our Walktober celebration.

That’s all for this week!

David
