POT O GOLD STORE
On Thursday,
March 11th, Kindergarten will visit The Pot O Gold Store located in our Library. Pot O Gold is a wide assortment of toys,
trinkets, and crafts available for purchase, ranging from .25 to a few dollars. If you would like your child to go shopping on this
day, please send in money in an envelope on Thursday, March 11th, and we will take him/her
shopping. (Most parents find that $5.00 is a
good amount to send in.)
Feel free to
join us! Look for the Pot O Gold class schedule in the school newsletter.
ST. PATRICKS DAY BAZAAR
The annual
St. Patricks Day Bazaar will be held on Friday, March 12th from

fun, festivities and food!
The Pre-K and Kdg. DO NOT have school on that day

you may bring your child to the Bazaar. There
are many childrens games during the day.

return your sold raffle tickets and money to school as soon as possible. The homerooms are having a race to see which class
