Parents,
Next Friday, November 21, will be a special day.
We are excited about sharing our Thanksgiving meal with those of you who signed up. We will serve over 300 meals that day, so we will need to follow a schedule with some guidelines to make everything run smoothly.
Please be a few minutes early for the time slot of the youngest sibling. K3 and K4 will eat at 10:45, K5-3rd will eat at 11:30, and 4th-12th will eat at 12:15.
You will need to park and come directly to the front of the cafeteria and see Mrs. Hope at the check-in table on the sidewalk. There, you will wait for your child's class to come to the cafeteria and get in line with them. We will have any older siblings meet you there.
You will go through the serving line with your child's class, be seated and given about 30-35 minutes to enjoy your meal with your family.
After the meal, if you would like to take your child home with you, please see Mrs. Hope again to sign them out. No need to go through the office.
We are looking forward to a special day and hope that this is a tradition that can continue. The holiday season is always special with family, and this is a way to include our SBA family. We are thankful for the opportunities to work with such great students and want to share our thanks with you.
