It's a "Penny War!" Next week, buckets will be placed in the elementary library for a full on war. Pennies are positive points and all other coins are negative points. So, if your child puts a quarter in a different grade level's bucket, that grade level will have points taken away from the total. The grade level with most points at the end of the week will win 15 minutes of extra recess. Start saving your change now!

Tomorrow is GREEN DAY. Make sure your child wears green.
