THANK YOU

A HUGE THANK YOU to Mr. & Mrs. Miller and their helpers for preparing the delicious Winter Court meal! Thank you also to all of the parent volunteers who worked at Winter Court and all the students who stayed late last week setting up the auditorium decorations. We really appreciate your hours of work for Winter Court!

BOXTOPS FOR EDUCATION

Thank you to everyone for bringing in your "Boxtops for Education" labels. We received a check last week from General Mills for $98.00! Keep saving these labels - you can drop them off in the office.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Our Grammar School teachers are hoping to find some parents who would be willing to come in once a month and cover for them during their lunch and recess time, 11:25 - 12:30. This would give our teachers a chance to get away for lunch once a month. Parents who would be available to do this should contact Miss Phillips or call the school office.

WINTER WEATHER

When winter weather is in the forcast, please listen to KFAQ 1170 am, KRMG 740 am, and KJRH Channel 2 for school closings beginning at 6:00 a.m. Remember that if Tulsa Public Schools are closed, SAA will be closed as well.
