Penny War!!

Penny War for the Orphans of Our Own Home in Africa

In chapel today, Mrs. Foxworth, along with our Lower School Student council, shared an idea of how Tattnall students could help the children of Our Own Home orphange in Uganda. Starting Monday, Jan. 14 through Friday, Jan. 18, our elementary classes will have an all out PENNY WAR! Each class will have a jar to fill full of pennies in competition with the other homerooms. There is a catch....you bring pennies to count points for your homeroom, BUT you can bring anything higher than a penny to place in another homeroom's jar and it will be DEDUCTED from that class' total! Sounds fun, huh? So let's shake our piggy banks and bring in our change so we can make a change in the lives of these orphans!

Bee #1: Geography

Emily Strange and Baylor Scott made us proud!

Report cards are in Friday's signed paper folder. There are no graded papers in the folder this week. The report cards do not have to be signed, but the folder should be returned on Monday.

Please be sure to send in items for the classroom that were requested before Christmas by Monday, January 7. Thank you.

Beginning this quarter, students will only have one excused homework. The last 2 quarters they had two "excused" before a zero was given. This adjustment is made to better prepare students for 5th grade expectations.
