Hello, It will be a busy and fun week! We will have concerts, sing-a-longs, buddy meet ups, and more! We will also be watching the newest Grinch movie. It is rated PG, please let me know if you are not comfortable with your child watching, I will have another activity ready for them! I will be bringing popcorn for the students on Friday during the movie. If you would like to bring something, let me know! We could use some healthy snacks like fruit or vegetables so it is not all sweets :). Field trip forms are heading home today! They will be due when we get back to school. I understand it is a busy time of the year let me know if the school can support you in anyway. I hope you have a wonderful winter break. I will miss all of the kiddos and will be excited to see them in the new year! Enjoy your time together.

Hello, QUINNEY/NDLC DECEMBER CARING PROJECT This year our NDLC and Quinney Council members have chosen to help out military personnel deployed overseas in honor of Adam Hall.  Adam is the husband of Amber Hall, an educational assistant for NDLC and Quinney School.  He is also the father of Oliver, a fourth grade student at Quinney, and Lilah, a second grade student at Quinney School.  Adam’s troop was recently deployed and will be gone for 12-14 months. We are looking for our Quinney and NDLC families to donate personal care items, snacks, or money.  The monetary donations will be used to cover the cost of shipping and to purchase extra supplies. All items should be new and in original packaging.  Thank you in advance for your help in supporting our troops.
