Book Exchange



The book exchange is a great way for VPE students to get a new book and help those without books at the same time.  Students may bring in books for the book exchange and turn them in to volunteers in the foyer from February 10-February 12 from 7:15 a.m. to 7:45 a.m.  We will choose books the following week during library classes.  For every two books they bring in, one can be chosen to take home and one will be donated to the International Book Project.

Working Hard!

Our ELL students are working hard on their ACCESS tests!  This test lets students show how much English they have learned! I hope to be finished with testing by the end of next week and then we will be back on our regular ELL schedule. Keep working hard!

This month we will be collecting donations for the Lexington Humane Society. Any of the following items may be donated in the blue tub by Mrs. Fox’s office from February 3-28.

Greatest Needs Are:
    Canned wet cat and dog food

Bubbles!

We read a fun book titled Bubbles! Then, we created bubbles of our own!

Donations can be placed in the blue bin in the foyer. All Items will be donated to Hart’s Coat Crusade for distribution to the needy in our community.  Thanks for helping make winter a little warmer for those in need!

November Spirit Project!


Toys for Tots

Our November spirit project is the Firefighters’ Toy Program.  Students are asked to bring a NEW toy to donate to the toy program, which will benefit local children during the month of November.  Each class will walk to the fire station on Saron Drive late in the month and students will have the opportunity to present their toys to the firefighters!  This is the fourth year of participation for VPE. Students may bring in their toys beginning November 11th.  Toys will be kept in the classrooms until we walk to the fire station! No stuffed animals please.
