Scholastic Book Order

I am extending the current book order deadline through the weekend.   Please place your order by 8 PM Sunday--I will place the order then.  I gave each student a coupon for a free [$5] book when you place an order of $10 or more.  Take a look at what's available--you can order from any catalog...not just the 4th grade one!!  The more points we get, the more books I can order for our classroom library.  

Doug Butt Run

From: Mrs. Casas

The 40th Annual Doug Butt Run will take place on Wed.Oct. 19, at Laurel Creek Park (1050 Cement Hill, Fairfield, CA).  The event is free and is open to K-8th graders.  The first race begins at 3:30 pm for K-1 girls.  Races are spaced five minutes apart, girls before boys and grouped by grade levels.  Race distances vary from 1/2 mile to 1 mile.  Following is the link for registration and details associated with each group's race:  http://nbefc.com/registration/?n=&org=nbefc.com&cat=ALL.   

The school that sends the greatest number of participants to the run will be recognized.  We will earn our school name on a race plaque and hold the honor of keeping the award on site until next year's race.  Let's get out there and run!!!

WATCH D.O.G.S

WATCH D.O.G.S. is coming to Nelda Mundy! Calling all Nelda Mundy DADS, Grandfathers, Uncles and other father figures! WE NEED YOU! Please join us for Pizza, Tuesday October 4th at 6:00 in the Nelda Mundy Library, to learn all about this AMAZING program and how you can help us make it a success for our kiddos! WATCH D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) !!! Why are we doing this??? 1) To provide positive male role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is important. 2) To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying. WATCH D.O.G.S. began in 1998 in a single school in Springdale, Arkansas and has since grown into a national recognized program that has brought hundreds of thousands of fathers and father figures into the school classrooms and hallways across the country, creating millions of hours of “in school” volunteer time and having a tremendously positive impact on the educational process. Check out the program here: http://www.fathers.com/ We hope you will mark this event on your calendar and join us to learn more about this AWESOME program!
