fifth grade newsletter december 4, 2025

Dear Parents,                                     

This year our class would like to show  the love of Christ through the outpouring of food, household goods, clothing, and a few gift cards to a family less fortunate than us during the Christmas season.  This fits right into our most recent novel we are reading; The Angel Tree.  The novel is about a community and some children who successfully help others in their community who are in need especially during the Christmas season.  The kids are very excited about this project.  Listed below are the food items and household items that would help this family

With your generosity, it is my hope that our fifth grade class can bring hope, peace, and Jesus to a family this Christmas season. 

 Items requested:

Grayson- (boy) size 4T (plain colored sweats outfit), shoe size 9C, whatever sock size would fit the shoe size, winter coat, hat, mittens

Mykol- (boy) size 6/7 (plain colored sweats outfit, jeans, long sleeved shirts, shoe size 12C and whatever socks fit the shoe size

(Mykol is mild autistic and loves football.) (foam)

Mom and Dad did not request anything for themselves.  I would suggest if anyone would like to send in gift cards, please have it be to Walmart, Target, Price Chopper, and Aldi’s as their locations are close to the area where this family resides.  

Food items:

Fifth Grade boys:

1 can green beans / 1 can chicken noodle/tomato soup          

Fifth Grade girls: 1 box mac/cheese/ 1 can mandarin oranges

Class: ALL clean/clear detergent, or toilet paper (2 ply),

We will have special dress-up days for the week of December 15-19, so here’s a heads up.

Monday- ugly Christmas sweater with uniform bottom

Tuesday- Christmas pj’s

Wednesday- Wear Red and Green tops with uniform bottoms

Thursday- wear a Christmas hat with your uniform

Friday- Wear a Christmas t-shirt & socks with uniform bottoms; Christmas sing-a-long; Class Christmas party 10:15-11:15; all parents may attend our class party; EARLY DISMISSAL

REMINDER: Every choir will be singing THIS Sunday!

Glory to the Newborn King!
