We had a wonderful Halloween party!  If you were not able to attend, pictures will be up soon on Ms. Yokoyama's blog! A huge THANK YOU to Tiffany (Skyler), Audrey (Henry), Ann (Rohan), Rosa (Federico) and Victoria (Bella) for pulling off such a wonderful, creative and low sugar party!  

> Pizza Contest Update
The Pizza Party Competition results will be announced tomorrow at the Monday Morning Meeting.  Be sure to ask your child about it Monday night! Thank you to everyone for taking time to take the quick survey!  :)

> School Closures in November
>> Monday, Nov. 12, 2012: Closed for Veteran's Day

These dates, and other school events and closures, can be viewed on the school calendar. If you use Google, you can import the QAE calendar to your own calendar (and I think you can convert it to other calendars as well...).

Picture re-takes will be Thursday, Nov. 8.  Send your photos back to school on 11/8 if you want re-takes.

> Student eFolios
The new eFolio's are here! The new eFolio's are here! What does that mean? Not too much...yet! This week, information will be emailed to you about how to login to child's account to upload images and add other content. If you are interested in volunteering to help with student eFolios, let me know! It's fun to do and a great way to get to know the children! (You can also work on this from home--anytime!)
