***In last week's folder(9/30) there was a note about OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD.  We have highlighted what type item your child is to bring for OUR BOX that we have in the classroom. Mrs. Buchanan has a boy box and Mrs. Barron has a girl box, so this is why girls are bringing for girls and boys for boys. We are also asking for fifty cents to cover the shipping cost.  If you and your child would like to do a box of your own that would be greatly appreciated.
