We will send home a list of items to help make our experience fun and memorable tomorrow.  If you could send the item by Thursday, December 1, your help is greatly appreciated. 

Students have also been asked to find out where their family heritage is from.  Many families have a variety of countries which their family may be from.  Please feel free to simplify to 1 or 2 countries as you see appropriate.  Thank you for your help!
