Greetings Fogelsville Families,
We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! It is hard to believe that we are now full steam ahead with only two weeks until winter break. Students are busy at work and are also looking forward to several special activities and traditions for the holiday season.
We hope to see you tonight at the PTO "Jingle and Mingle" event from 6:00- 7:30 PM and at the Harlem Wizards game on Sunday!
Sincerely,
Lisa Lesko
