Hi 2nd Grade Parents,

Nest Wednesday, students will participate in a grade wide Greek Day celebration!  To make that happen we need lots of help and donations…so begging for all of you fingerprinted volunteers to come and join the fun!!


In addition to the above sign up, Miss Hadley’s room will lead the readers theater of Greek Myths.  We will need to parent volunteers and if anyone has any Greek costumes that students could borrow and use to dress up in while reading that would be great!  Please send them in labeled and we can get them returned to you.  Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you!
Cristy

PS - we are also looking for pizza boxes in various sizes if anyone has a connection that might be able to help us out!
