Announcements:

The new Butterbraid delivery day is THIS Thursday. Please make sure you make arrangements to pick up you butterbraids and get them into a freezer within the hour just to be safe.  If you have an issue getting the butterbraids into a freezer due to an after school activity, you need to speak to Mrs. Patchett sooner rather than later.  Please do not wait until Thursday to communicate the conflict.
