Debbie Williams, Principal |

The year is quickly coming to an end and it will soon be 2008. I hope
each of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
Thank you for your donations of gently used Kent t- shirts. We have
been able to pass these shirts on to over 63 Cardinals.
We are ending the year with a canned food drive that will benefit
people right here in Carrollton. I am so proud to be a part of such a
generous and caring community.
The month of December is filled with excitement of the holiday
season. It is time for each of us to reflect on the past year and be
thankful for the many good things which we have experienced. I
appreciate your cooperation and the great support you and your student
give our school each day.
On behalf of the staff at Kent Elementary, I'd like to thank you
and wish you a safe and enjoyable holiday season! Best wishes in 2008.
