School Supplies

Dear Parents,

            I am so excited about the upcoming school year!  We are going to be learning a lot in first grade, and I cannot wait to meet you!  Back-to-School Night is on Thursday, August 7, at 7:00.  I hope to see you there.  If you are unable to come, school begins on August 12.  Over the next few weeks it would be great if you could get a head start on purchasing supplies for the year.  Please bring them to Back-to-School Night if you can.  Here is a list of what is needed as well as a wish list for non-required items.  I will be sending you a copy of this list along with a couple of questionnaires to fill out before Back-to-School Night and a personal welcome letter telling you more about myself.  I look forward to growing your children with you this year!   ~ Mrs. Crisp
