Bonjour! Thank you to everyone who helped out or purchased tamales to support us. And a very special thank you to moms of Ashley, Derick, Beto, Joseline, and Alonso who helped us make 450 tamales. Please be aware that final payments are due Monday, February 26 as final payments to VIE need to be sent that week. All students were sent home with a note about final payments yesterday. As always, please let me know if you have any questions!

Bon appétit! Who says the French Club can’t make tamales? Thank you to our wonderful moms that helped out! (Missing Ashley’s Mom!)

Bonjour a tous! Thank you to all who have supported us by volunteering or donating this semester whether with Hometown Holidays, Charleston Wrap, See's Candy or other sales or activities! Looking forward to more fun events next semester! A few reminders as we head into the holidays... 1. Has your child submitted a copy of the first page of their passport with their photo to Google Classroom? 2. Please have them complete their host family letters and applications for our first week back in January. 3. Contact VIE for any alternative travel plans before January 15. 4. Please send in any last minute payments. 5. Make sure they have not lost their t-shirts as they will need to wear them in France. 6. Have they completed their fundraising letter and turned it in on Google Classroom?

What a great way to end the year!! Bagels and Nutella, La Croix and Secret Santa! Back next year for more adventures.

Please remind your student to take a picture of their passports (the page with their photos) and turn it in to Google Classroom by Thursday, December 7th. Merci!

Still here!
