Box Top Update

Hello everyone! I hope you are enjoying your summer vacation. I thought I would remind everyone to save those Box Tops. Every Box Top you turn in is worth 10 cents. With your help, our school earned $1005 last year. Gilbert has earned $7211 since beginning the Box Top Program in 2002. Isn't that amazing?

Hi guys! I'd like to hear from you! With mom or dad's help, email me and tell me how your summer is going. I'll do a post on our class blog so we can keep up with each other. Keep in touch! Email address: elisarichardson@walkerschools.org.

News from Zeke!

I email a picture of Zeke to his mom. He said, "HELLO MRS. RICHARDSON!" He also wished me a great summer off. SO, Hello Zeke! I hope your summer is going well. Have you gone swimming yet? I passed by your house the other day on the way to my aunt's house. She lives down the road from you. I didn't see you or your brothers outside playing. You must have been inside cooling off. Boy has it been hot lately! Stay cool and keep in touch!

News from Amber!

I've heard from Amber, too! She doing well. I think she's been to visit Haley. Haley showed Amber where I live. Her mom wrote that she's doing well and she hope my summer is going well and I was having fun with Alex and Chaz! Thanks, Amber! We're doing fine. We have Vacation Bible School at our church next week. You are all welcome to come! It's Outrigger's Island at First Baptist from 9 to 12 each day. Alex will be helping out, probably with recreation. So, you'll probably see him if you go! I'll be in and out as I have some things to do at school next week! Keep in touch!

News from Haley!

Hi everyone! I've heard from Haley. So far, she's having a pretty good summer. She and her mom found some baby rabbits. They are taking care of them. Mrs. Underwood says the bunnies are very small and still have their eyes closed. Isn't that cool? Keep us posted Haley!
