Thursday Night

Dear Parents,
We are very excited about our Thanksgiving program coming up as we know you are too. The kids have a great show prepared for you! Please read below for a few program reminders:
·       Our class should wear brown pants or blue jeans and their white Indian shirts will be given to them to change into when they arrive.
·       Please have your child in the gym no later than 6:30.
·       Please be conscious of those around you. By holding a video camera or iphone in the air, you may be blocking the vision of those around you. If you would like to video or take pictures, please step to the aisles on the side.
·       Any siblings that attend are not allowed to come sit up front to be closer. This makes it difficult for the students to focus and the teachers to help direct.
·       When the program is over, you will have a few minutes to take pictures. Then the classes will be dismissed back into the gym. Please send only one parent to come get your child and let your teacher know before you take them.
·       Come early for a good seat and enjoy!
