PAW PRIDE

It was so much fun seeing so many familiar faces at the homecoming parade last night.
Tonight's the football game...Go Bulldogs!
Many of us sported our NEW school spirit jerseys today at school:

Let's stay healthy!

Today many of us got vaccinated for the upcoming flu season.
The health department came to school and gave students (and teachers) the flu mist (or flu shot).

Remember to also stay healthy this year by washing your hands, using Germ-X, getting a good night's sleep, and eating a healthy diet.

Here are some BrainPop video links about the flu and flu vaccines...

BOX TOPS!

Thank you to everyone who is saving Box Tops for Education!
It is an EASY way to raise $ for our school.

To make this collection more exciting, we have competitions among the classes to see who can raise the most and we can earn rewards when we collect certain amounts of Box Tops!
So far we collected...
500 Box Tops (and earned Popsicles!)
Here are some Popsicle pictures...






AND then we collected a total of 1,000 Box Tops (and earned ice cream!)
Here are some ice cream pictures....







The next level is 1,500...we'll earn popcorn!  Keep collecting those Box Tops!
(And remind your grandmas, neighbors, and everybody you know to save them for you too!)
