STEAM Day Reminders

• All homeroom teachers and support staff should have a white lab coat to wear. If you do not have one, stop by Hess' office and grab one.
• Go through your bins and see what's missing, what do you need more of, or what's not right and let Hess know by tomorrow.This will give PTO a few days to get you everything that you need for STEAM day. 
• Perishable items will be delivered to you the morning of STEAM day 
• Return your STEAM day bins to room 123 before you leave for Thanksgiving break on Friday. 
• Support staff, return your lab coats to room 123 at the end of the day Friday. 
• Homeroom teachers KEEP your lab coats in your classrooms. 
Any questions or concerns, see Hess.
