SERVICE HOURS: CLASS WISH LIST
to access our class wish list. Parents can donate items from this wish list for their service hours. Note: the items do NOT have to be purchased from this wish list, but this list just lets you know what we would like.



REPORT CARDS

KOINS 4 KIDS
We’ve brought in the highest money total but the contest is based on the average per student, so we’re actually in third place, behind Kinder and 2nd grades. On Friday, February 1, if we have the highest average, we will earn an ice cream treat. If on Friday, February 8th we have the highest average, we will earn a pizza party and another special treat... Keep it up fourth grade, you’re doing really well!
