Just as we return from Thanksgiving Break, we find ourselves with only three weeks until school is out again for Winter Break. Even though it is only fifteen days, there are many wonderful events scheduled.
The Angel Tree is set up and soon families can adopt an angel and purchase toys, books, clothes, or gift cards for some Teasley families that need a little extra help this holiday season. I hope you will help your child understand the true meaning of giving by taking an angel and buying a present for someone, who will really appreciate your generosity.
On Monday Dec. 1st the Treble Tones performed at the Smyrna Community Center just before the lighting of the Christmas Tree. They did such a great job. On Thursday evening they will sing again at the lighting of the Vinings Christmas Tree down at the Jubilee. What a great way to get into the holiday spirit.
Another special evening is when the 5th grade students present their holiday performance (6:30) following the PTA meeting (6:00) on Thursday Dec. 11th. This is always one of the highlights of the season for me as the students do such a great job.
Flyers should have gone home about the Holiday Breakfast that is scheduled for Saturday, December 13th 9:00-11:30. This is a very special family event. A delicious breakfast will be served (please make reservations $4) and then there will be different crafts and activities for everyone to enjoy. There is also a Santa Shop where students can purchase gifts for friends and family members. It is so much fun to see the children select the "perfect" gift for mom or dad. As always the PTA needs help with the different activities. You can contact dianewickham@att.net with any questions.
The last day before Winter Break is Friday December 18. On that day we have our class parties and the school is filled with sugar and excitement.
As you can see the next few weeks will be packed with many great events. I hope that you will join us for some of these special occasions.
