News and Notes from Mrs. Endorf - February 8th-12th

CCLS Trivia Night

Hopefully you have heard about our upcoming CCLS Trivia Night on Friday, February 19, 2016.  I wanted to tell you about an exciting classroom challenge we are doing for the students.  Here's how it works.  If your child's class fills 1 table (either full of classroom parents or family friends), your child's classroom will receive a Leap Day Free Dress Day on Monday, February 29, 2016.  When you click the link to sign up, just note in the appropriate section which class should receive credit.  We will take it from there.  

We hope you make plans to attend this fun evening.  It will be a great night to socialize with other CCLS families.
