Weekly Roundup: Literacy Parade Fri 10/30, Marathon Day Bake Sale Sun 11/1
Sun, Oct 25 9:18pm

TL;DR: The Literacy Parade is Friday 10/30, at staggered times by grade (Konstella post), and the school runs an evacuation drill sometime this week, so talk it through with your child beforehand (Konstella post). The October Principal's Newsletter is out (newsletter, Konstella post). Next Sunday 11/1 the PTA runs its Marathon Day Bake Sale at Lafayette and Vanderbilt and needs bakers and helpers (sign-up). Thank you to everyone who walked for breast cancer awareness on Friday, filled the auditorium for Movie Night and rode along at today's Bike Hang.

To do this week

  • Help your child choose the book they will carry in Friday's Literacy Parade, and remember: no Halloween costumes. The route map is on the flyer (Konstella post).
  • Bake something or take a shift for the Marathon Day Bake Sale on the sign-up; drop-off can be the day before or the morning of.

  • Make sure your child can sign in to their class's Google Classroom before the remote learning day on Election Day (Contact your teacher or class lead for help if needed).

Full details, flyers and sign-ups are on Konstella; the calendar is always at ps20.org/calendar.
