Principal's Letter- November 9, 2017

Dear Budlong Families,

Happy Thursday! As we get ready to close out this week, I have a few announcements.

Our annual Hot Chocolate jog-a-thon takes place tomorrow. The forecast calls for cold weather so please dress your child in layers, and with hat scarf, and gloves. Tomorrow is also the last day of the Book Fair. Please see Mr. Pagan in the library to shop before then. Congratulations to our girl's volley ball team for advancing to the championship round; they play Boone today at 4:40, at Boone.

If you love cartoons, come out Saturday morning from 10 - 2 pm to Carbon Arc restaurant. FOB is hosting Cartoons and Brunch and 15% of the proceeds from advance sales and reservations will go back to our school. Anyone participating in the advanced reservation will also receive their first adult beverage for free. A flyer is coming home tomorrow in backpack mail.
​
Our FOB is sponsoring a Budlong Cookbook. Please send your yummiest recipes to friendsofbudlong@gmail.com before November 15. We want to share the beauty of the cultures represented at Budlong through food. Join us in the celebration and share your best recipes today.

Next week is Spirit Week:
Monday is Sports Team Day
Tuesday is Twins Day
Thursday is Budlong Day
Friday is Crazy Hair Day
Report Card pick-up is on Wednesday, 10 - 4pm. Please contact your student's teachers for appointment times to make sure that you are able to see all teachers.
