Summer is half gone!

Where has the time gone?  It seems as if we just finished the school year and we were holding our end of the year celebration.  Now all I see on TV are adds for back to school.  Yes, I have been out shopping for my daughter, looking at new pencil boxes, smelling new crayons, and deciding what kind of backpack is needed for the new year.  I felt pretty good as I picked up the majority of the school supplies for under $10.  It was so cheap as we decided to recycle last years backpack and some supplies!  Get the supplies while they are cheap!  Recycle supplies from last year.  Scissors don't go bad after one years use.

If you have forgotten what your child needs, please go to our website (pe.tfsd.org) or our school app (ischoolbox in your app store)and you can find a list of what is requested.  These supplies can be brought to our open house on August 29th.  Please mark your calendars.  Times to be announced later.

I hope you have been spending time at the Twin Falls Public Library.  Some great books I have read this summer include "The Adventures of Nanny Piggins,"  "Girls Who Rock the World," and "The Artsy Smartsy Club."  I would also suggest any of the Ivy and Bean series as well as books by author Daniel Pinkwater.  I found these books at the public library and at the TF Library Bookmobile.  The bookmobile is at Perrine every Thursday from 4:30 to 5:15.  The bookmobile will continue to be at Perrine during the school year.  Check it out!

Enjoy the rest of your summer.  The first day of school is September 3rd at 8:05 a.m.
