I am looking forward to this year's Ladue Homecoming Parade!  It is scheduled for Saturday October 5th at 11:00.  If you would like your Fifth Grader to walk in the parade this year, please sign the permission form and return to me (these will be coming home within the next few days). We are also looking for a few volunteer parents that would like to walk with us to represent FGC.  Go DRAGONS!!

Our first classroom guidance lesson series has begun.  Last Friday, Team Fire participated in learning about decision making (individual and group) and how decisions that we make every day can impact others.  I look forward to visiting with Team Water this week.
