Dear Parents,

Congratulations to JingBin for being our MVP of the week. We enjoyed learning more about our special classmate when he shared his banner with us on Monday.

Happy Birthday to Kevin on October 23!

Students enjoyed blasts from the past at our Friday assembly! We welcomed returning teachers, students and friends of CCE.  Coach Tighe even treated us to the announcements 1998 style!  Here’s to 20 more years!

Red Ribbon Week was a huge success! We focused this week on making healthy choices for ourselves and we“REFLECTed” on what that neans to us. We had fun with crazy socks, crazy hair, and team jerseys!
Thank you PTA for providing lunch for the CCE staff on Friday.  It sure was delicious, and we truly appreciate your hospitality.
This first half of third grade is zooming by! This week promises to keep the busy feeling going with not only all the amazing things we are learning everyday in the classroom, but we also have the excitement of Halloween thrown in there, as well. I hope you all have a fun and safe Halloween night!
Gratefully,

Mrs. McDonald

Dear Parents,

It was so wonderful to sit down and chat with each of you and discuss your child’s accomplishments so far this year and the goals we will be working on in 3rd grade. The school year has really started off great, and I can’t wait to see how much they learn and grow this year.

Congratulations to our Student Council representatives for this year: Allie and Ishaan! Thank you also to Cruz and Jillian for their spectacular speeches. I am so proud of these kiddos for running for Student Council!  It is great to know we have so many students in our class willing to take on leadership roles.

Happy Birthday to Jillian on October 10!

Thank you for your support as many of you have made your donation to our classroom fund for our parties and various activities throughout the year.  Please return your form as soon as you can, as preparations for 3rd grade activities are under way. I truly appreciate your generosity!

Enjoying your children,
Mrs. McDonald
