November 2019

THANKSGIVING BREAK
Students will be dismissed at 12:10 p.m. on Wednesday, November 27 for Thanksgiving, through December 1, 2019. School will resume the regular schedule on Monday, December 2, 2019. Happy Thanksgiving!
PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES
We believe that good communication between the home and school is essential to maximize student achievement. It is our goal to meet with at least one parent for every child in our school. Everyone should have a set time to meet on November 4, 2019. If for some reason you are unable to come in on the scheduled date, the teacher will do their best to accommodate you with alternative times during a school day. Fifteen minute meetings are planned for each child between the times of 10:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
VETERAN’S DAY PROGRAM
We will be hosting our third school wide Veteran’s Day program on November 12, 2019. Broad Ford Elementary would like to honor our Veterans. Any of our local heroes and their families are invited to join us at 9:30 in our cafeteria. Please call Mrs. Davis if you plan to attend at (301) 334-9445. We appreciate you!
DISMISSAL CALLS
We would like to remind parents that any changes in transportation/pick-up need to take place before 2:00. Please do not call the school to change arrangements unless you have an emergency or special appointment.
CHECK OUT LOST AND FOUND
The Lost and Found box and coat rack in the cafeteria at Broad Ford are full-to-overflowing. If you and/or your child are missing any items, particularly clothing, please stop by the cafeteria to check it out. Any items not claimed will be donated to a local charity. Thank you!
BOOK FAIR
We would like to remind everyone about our upcoming Book Fair. It will take place November 4, 2019 – November 12, 2019.
