Parents,

We need donations of purchasing 10 plain red stockings for my annual “Stuff the stocking” activity for the holidays. I have purchased 13 already and need 10 more. Also, I would like several parents to contact each other through bloomz and start thinking about our holiday party. You can let me know who’s interested in coordinating the party and I will place you guys in a group message. It will be the last day before the holiday starts. We need to come up with activities, crafts, and food for that day. Any takers?????????
