5/7

Please remember our 150 star party tomorrow!  Students may wear pajamas and bring something to lay on.  If you'd like to send in a treat, thank you!!!  I must have your permission slip for the movie.

Genre projects are due tomorrow!!!

Friday is our trip to the Georgia Mountain Research and Education Center.  Please dress for being outside all day.  Apply sunscreen before you leave home and consider wearing some bug spray too.  If students are wearing flip flops they will not be allowed to attend the trip.  Also, without a signed permission slip, we cannot take them.  Thanks for your help!
