Opportunities in October

I hope that you all enjoyed the opportunity to relax and enjoy some family time during the recent days away from school! The weather in October is just beautiful and perfect for Fall fun!
Upcoming October Opportunities at Addison:
Fall Festival October 11 5:00 - 8:00
Parenting Toolbox for Success October 17 9:00am OR 6:00pm
Conferences October 21 - 25 (Early dismissal 12:20)
Book Fair Octboer 21 - 25
Red Ribbon Week October 21 - 25

Conference appointments were sent out last week and I have received most of your responses. If you have not returned the lower portion of your form, please send it back to me to confirm the date and time. Thanks!
Students will have an opportunity to preview the book fair and even purchase items during the school day, but the fair will also be open during some conference hours.
The same week, we will celebrate Red Ribbon Week to stress the importance of being proactive and drug-free. Our counselors have planned some fun activities for the students.
Remember that students will be dismissed two hours early to allow for conferences. Please bring your child with you to our student-led conferences. Please be prompt as we are on a very tight schedule. You will be proud of how much he or she has learned already this year! I look forward to meeting with each family.

Thank you for supporting your child as he or she practices multiplication facts. I have added some new exciting websites to our Math Practice page that I know your kids will enjoy. As always, the activities are completely free. If your child needs flash cards to use at home, I will be happy to send some. Math is a million times easier (and a lot more fun) for those who are fluent with multiplication facts!
