THE STUDENT-PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCE SCHEDULE is in today’s folder. Please be prompt and keep in mind that a couple of the classrooms are on a very tight schedule. If you have specific questions, making a list ahead of time helps tremendously. If 10-15 minutes is not enough time, please schedule additional time for a later date with the classroom teacher.

DRESS CODE REMINDER: Due to forecasted cooler weather, the dress code will revert back to long pants or navy, black, or khaki leggings under an appropriate length skirt or jumper, beginning this Monday, Oct. 14th.

“GHOSTY GRAM” order forms are in today’s folder. This is sponsored by the Student Council. Please return your order by Monday, October 21st. Thank you!

TRUNK OR TREAT! Our Lady of the Snows School will once again be hosting our annual "Halloween Walk". Back by popular demand is the Trunk or Treat event that goes along with this. We invite you to "treat" our students on Thursday, October 31st, in the parking lot in front of the brick school building. The students will begin our Halloween Walk at 1:30 pm, so parking/set up is from 1:00 to 1:25 pm. Some participants dress up and/or decorate their trunks & some don't but it's all in good fun. In case of rain, the event will be moved to the gym. Please call or send a note to Rosie in the school office @ 573-498-3574 if you would like to participate. Thank you!

PICTURE RETAKE DAY - Tuesday, October 15th. Students who missed the last picture day and those who want retakes may dress up for their picture but must change to dress code afterwards. If you are having your child’s picture retaken, please return the package intact, and add a note as to what you would like changed.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE DRILL THIS WEEK: On Wednesday, we ran a practice drill, asking our classrooms to respond as if there was a threat in our building. Students learned what to do and where to go in case of a threat. We will continue emergency drills throughout the school year.

STUDENT COUNCIL MEETING RESCHEDULED: The meeting originally scheduled for October 30th has been rescheduled to Tuesday, October 29th until 4:15 pm.

SCHOOL-WEAR ORDERING TO REOPEN! Queen Bee Graphics will open up ordering for one month, running from Oct. 15th through Nov. 15th. This would be a good time to take advantage of ordering for Christmas or if you just need some school shirts, quarter-zips, or spirit shirts. The link will be made available through a text message sent out on October 15th.
