For the reminder of the school year, we would ask that children not bring their Pokemon cards to school. Trading and sharing of cards has become an issue between many of the younger students and some of the older students. It has been great to see so many students get involved in learning the ins and outs of sharing and trading. The chatter and excitement of card trading lives on! However it is now causing more angst than good. With many field trips and activities planned over the next three weeks, it would seem that this would be a natural time to take a Pokemon break. If students forget and bring their cards, cards will be brought to the office and held there until the end of the day. Parents or students can then come to collect them.
Thank you for your cooperation.
