Important Rainforest Information!

Dear Parents, the crazy weather has left us with a few days before the rainforest.  We will forgo the usual information on the blog and put important rainforest information. 

Dates:
Food drive- extended to next week.  Look for details!

Tuesday: 9:00 Second graders and parents visit rainforest,
11:30-1:00 Rainforest Open House - dress nicely
Thursday & Friday: Parent/Teacher conferences. Please take rainforest animal home during conference days. 
Week of Monday, March 11 - rainforest deconstruction.  We need all the help we can get.  Thanks!

All things rainforest -
     *Food for the open house - you are welcome to send your food items early on Tuesday.  We can put it in the refrigerator, plug a crock pot in, or put it on the tables in the South MPR. Please note: if you signed up to bring an item with a spice, we don't want a bottle of spice but an item made with that spice.  Let us know if you have any questions.
     * We will have a special table for items with nuts so please label any food that has nuts in them.
     *Dress - we are asking the third graders to dress up for Tuesday.  We ask the boys to wear khakis and a collared shirt, and the girls to wear nice pants or skirt, and a nice top.  This doesn't need to be fancy but just a step up from normal school wear.  We trust the parents judgement as to what is appropriate dress so don't feel limited by the above choices.
     *Thank you to all the parents who scheduled a special tour for family & friends who can't make it on Tuesday.  We will still have time to accommodate you.
     *All St. Paul's students will be given an opportunity to see the rainforest.  If your third grader's sibling was absent when his/her class went through, please let us know and we can reschedule a visit.
     *A Shutterfly account has been set up to view all the rainforest pictures.  The information is below.  We will try to add pictures everyday so be patient.

The information you need is below.  The password is stpauls.
