MKS Family Fund (aka the green envelope) - The first MKS Family Fund drawing took place at the assembly and all you need to do to enter is make a donation in any amount to support the arts at Keppel. There will be one more drawing in October, so please return your green envelope soon.
PTA Membership (aka the blue envelope) - If you haven't already done so, please consider becoming a dues-paying member of PTA. Seventy percent of our families have returned their blue membership envelope with $10 to support the vital work of the Keppel PTA. It's not too late to join them --- and thank you to all who already have.
PTA Fundraiser - Be sure to check your child's backpack today as the big white envelope for the Kids Are First fundraiser is inside. The sale starts today and the final day to turn in order forms is Friday, October 11.
Flower Dissection in Mystery Science - We had LOTS of fun after lunch when we dissected a lily! Be sure to get all the details from your budding botanist (pun intended). Scientific vocabulary we used included:
- stigma
- ovary
- ova
- petals
- pollen
- pollen dusters
Mark Your Calendar! Just announced: Third grade classes (along with first grade classes) will perform American Folktales & Fables for our families at 10:00am on Tuesday, November 19th in the auditorium at Hoover HS. Our class will be performing Little Red Hot (which you should be hearing your child practice at home). We hope to see you there!
