Ms. Backhus is diving into Red Ribbon Week to remind us that a drug-free life leaves room for all kinds of fun, adventures, and hobbies… even the ones that require flippers and a basket! 😂
❤️ Make healthy choices. Stay drug-free. Find your own kind of fun!

Our Little Blessings Pre-K friends got their hands into some fall fun as they carved a pumpkin together! 🍂
From scooping out the gooey insides to discovering what's hiding inside a pumpkin, it was a fun, hands-on learning experience filled with curiosity, excitement, and maybe a few sticky fingers! 😂🎃
Sometimes the messiest moments make the best memories! 💛

Don't forget about Trunk or Treat today! 🍁🍂

Next week is our final week of collecting chapel offerings to help cover the shipping costs for our Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes!
In past years, our students have raised enough through chapel offerings to ship 20 or more boxes. So far this year, we've collected $88.19, enough to ship just 8 boxes. We'd love to see that number grow during our final week of giving! If every student brings just $2 to chapel next week, we could raise enough to ship 30 shoeboxes!
This year, instead of each classroom packing two shoeboxes, our students will participate in a school-wide Operation Christmas Child Packing Party during the week of November 9–13! Students will still have the opportunity to help pack shoeboxes and share God's love with children around the world.
Families are also encouraged to donate items to help fill the boxes. Please see the attached flyer for a list of needed items and additional details. Donations can be dropped off at the school or church office by Friday, November 6.
Thank you for helping our students make a difference through Operation Christmas Child!
