Looking Ahead...

           The upcoming week is conference week, students will be dismissed at 1:25pm daily. 
 If you have a conference after school and your child rides the bus, please be sure to notify 
the office staff that he/she will not be riding the bus home on that day.  I look forward to
 sitting down with you and your child to discuss their performance so far this year.  PLEASE 
remember to bring your student along, it IS all about them, so they are a key component of
 the meeting.
            Thursday 11/21/13 we will be going to Torrey Pines for our second field trip.  Parent

 volunteers are ALWAYS welcome, but if you can't join us, you can still help out.  This 
Thursday is also National Parent Involvement Day, and the PTA is hosting an event.  They 
are asking that parents come to school at 9:30 to learn more about the newly adopted Common 
Core Standards and visit classrooms.  They are supporting the school-wide canned food drive 
by asking parents to bring in some nonperishable food item that will be donated to The Salvation
 Army.  Students will be brining home a flier for further details or you may contact the PTA 
directly to RSVP for childcare/translation services at:  
  cbobryk-pta@san.rr.com.
        Friday is also another big day on our campus.  We will be concluding out unit on

 Thanksgiving, as well as celebrating it with a classroom feast.  The presentations of The 
Island of the Blue Dolphins project is scheduled to begin at 9:30, while the feast will take 
place during our normal modified day-lunch time at 12:00.  Please send a dish that is
 commonly served on your family's table to share with the class.  You are also invited to join us!  
With the variety of cultures represented in our classroom,
 I anticipate we will have quite a cornucopia of food.       

 Finally, Friday is also the final day of the Food Drive.  Please peruse your cabinets and
donate any canned goods to help feed less fortunate families in San Diego during the holiday season.  
We can also have pizza at our feast if we collect the most cans than the other classrooms.



 


Thanks in advance for your support!
