Spelling Bee

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are having a school wide spelling bee on October 6th and 8th. We have practiced what a spelling bee would be like and we will continue to practice spelling words in class. However, it would be beneficial to your student to practice these words at home. I’ve included a list of words that may appear at the spelling bee for kindergarten level.

I know it looks like a lot of words but if you practice a few a day then your student will have a good chance at the spelling bee.

Thank you,



Mrs. Allison Elison

Ugly Shoe Day

Ugly shoe day is September 4, 2009. Ugly shoe day consists of: wearing any ugly shoes of your choosing which will be judged and winners will be given awards. Shoes my be decorated, torn (as long as they stay on feet), dirty, etc. Please make sure that the shoes cover the students feet and will stay on, I don't want any injuries to occur because of improper foot wear.
