A Word from Mrs. Fisher

November 16 - 20, 2009

Dear Parents,
Luckily last Monday, our brush with Tropical Storm Ida was minimal. It was quite a relief to us all!

Interims were sent home last Thursday. Please sign and return to school.

Thank you very much for the donations you contributed to our Food Drive Collection. Your acts of kindness and generosity will feed someone hungry this holiday season.

The Builders Club is currently collecting "Coats for Kids." If your family has outgrown a coat or two, please consider giving to this worthy cause. The drop off location is in the LHMS lobby. This too, is greatly appreciated!

What an exciting season our Saints football team is having! GO, SAINTS, GO!
LSU just couldn't beat the Alabama Crimson Tide last week. Darn! But, our class surely enjoyed those Bama cupcakes! Thanks!

Your child may need replenishing of his/her school supplies. (markers, pencils, crayons, etc.)
