Thursday, October 1st is Hat Day at CTE! Bring $1 to wear your favorite hat all day. We also want to see your guesses for Baby Nance! If you think Principal Nance is having a girl, wear pink! If you think Principal Nance is having a boy, wear blue!

It is almost time for the Scholastic Book Fair!
The Book Fair opens on Monday, September 28th, and runs through Thursday, October 1st! Students will have the opportunity to shop the fair during their library related arts time.
We are excited to offer additional shopping times each day after school! Parent conferences begin next week, so we encourage you to stop by the library to shop the fair when you come in to meet with your child's teacher! Specific shopping times will be sent home tomorrow with your student!
Check out our Book Fair Home Page and set up your child's eWallet!
