Hello,

We just filled our our heart jar and the children voted to have a "toy day". They are welcome to bring in a toy from home on TUESDAY. The toy should be something not electronic (please no added noises 😂) and be able to fit in a backpack. They will be allowed to play with it during our afternoon choice time.

  • As you probably have seen from Mrs. Kane's emails, Shaker Lane will be having a Halloween parade on 10/31 at 1:50. 
  • HERE is our class info regarding Halloween.
  • Please note the sign up for the November 15th parent/teacher conferences will be released on 10/31. 
  • Please remember to send your child's work folder to school each day- thank you!
  • For those of you who ordered books from Scholastic Books- the order will be in on Monday...they apologize for the delay.
  • Wednesday is an early release day.
  • This THURSDAY is a Shaker Lane spirit day- Fun Facts Day (students are encouraged to bring in a true fun fact to share and many will be chosen to be read during our morning announcements on Friday!)
