Please remind your children to check out the lost and found for missing items. Mostly it’s an array of hats and gloves, but the number of sweatshirts is on the rise, too.
Take an extra look around your home for any items that need to be returned to school before the end of the year. Library books, teacher supplies, reading bags, etc.
