Reminder:  On Thursday is our school's Books Alive Day!  Your student can come dressed as a book character, but please no scary costumes or real/pretend weapons.  There are tons of book character costumes that will not require you to purchase one little thing!  This a Rosa Parks tradition that I just love! 


Here's a link of homemade costumes:
