It was great to see so many of you at the Halloween carnival this weekend.  Your costumes were awesome!!!!! It was a great conference week as well.  I enjoyed spending time talking to parents about how wonderful each of my students are.  Just a reminder---- In less than two weeks we will be taking our trip to San Juan Bautista Mission.  We are going on Thursday , November 10, 2011.  These are the parents who will be going with us on the VIA bus and who are helping to chaperone our trip:
