Happy New Year! Welcome back to school, I hope your break was well spent with family and friends! I am looking forward to the many new things we will begin in January! 

Enjoy the week!

Mitchellville

Hopefully your student has been anticipating "Mitchellville!" I sent home information on how your child will need to apply for a job and the laws that are required in the town of Mitchellville, such as rent and payday. Please take some time during this first week back to look over the jobs that will be available and decide on 2-3 that would fit your child's interests. Each child has one week to apply for a job. Not everyone will receive their first choice when it comes finding a job! I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding Mitchellville!

School/Classroom Supplies

Each child will be responsible for his/her own classroom supplies and replenishing them for the remainder of the school year. These supplies include: crayons, markers, pencils, personal sharpener (that holds the shavings), erasers, scissors, glue sticks.
