On our last Dress Down Day, I collected $16.00. The money will go toward construction paper and Kleenex.

We are having a field trip on December 15. We are going to a farm. The cost is $6.50 per student/chaperone. Chaperones must have a fingerprint card on file in the office.

Please send your child to school with a water bottle. We have a water cooler in the room and no drinking fountain close by our room.

Please look over any work and your child’s report in the blue weekly folders. There should not be any surprises on how your child is doing if the folders are reviewed. Some of the children have lost their folders. It is okay to replace the blue folder if needed.

You can receive an Arizona tax credit by donating money to your favorite school (hopefully, it’s Liberty)! Information is available in the office. Donations are only accepted until December 31st for this tax year.
