Goodall Update 10-6-2016

October 6, 2016

THANK YOU, PARENTS AND VOLUNTEERS!!
Our overnight trip was a BIG success, and we had a GREAT time!  We couldn’t have done it without the help of so many and the culinary skills of Mr. Marshall.  We still have many “found” items that were left behind.  They are up in Mrs. Moreno’s area, by the middle sink.  If you’re missing a jacket, other clothing, towels, etc., please come and check.  Mildew will start to set in soon.
This coming Tuesday, our area will be visited by the Master Gardener organization.  Your child will be involved in several activities and learning about insects and spiders!
