ECC and Montessori: Muffins with Moms
Every year, the ECC and Montessori classes hold a Muffins with Moms event in which parents are welcomed to attend class with their children, work with them, and then share breakfast together. This event is called "Muffins with Moms" but dads, aunts, uncles, or other relatives may come in place of the mom. (We will have a separate event titled "Breakfast with Babas" later in the year.) The Muffins with Moms for this year will be held on Friday, October 31 from about 8:15-9:15am. We look forward to seeing our moms there!

For anyone who hasn't yet turned in unpurchased pictures and/or payments for purchased pictures to the school, if we do not receive these by Friday morning to ship back to the company, you will have to ship the packages/payments to the company personally. |

Pink Out Day!
In honor of breast cancer awareness month, the PTA is holding a Pink Out Day on Tuesday, October 28. Pink Out Day is meant for students to dress in something pink to show solidarity with the hundreds of thousands of Americans suffering from breast cancer every year. Additionally, students will be able to donate towards the Susan G. Komen Research Foundation at the school.
Since Tuesdays are free dress days for middle school students, they may dress in as much pink as they like, and so may ECC and Montessori students. Since 1st-5th graders must be in uniform, they may wear some articles of clothing which can be pink, such as socks, shoes, wristbands, hijaabs, neckties, bowties, belts, and so on, as long as they are still in their light blue polos and navy blue trousers.
