Halloween candy
After Halloween, do you still have candy around your house?
Are you thinking that you have had enough, but don't want it to go to waste?
Are you aware that there are children that don't get to go trick-or-treating and would love a few treats?
We have a solution!
Bring candy to the office by Wednesday, November 5. All candy will be boxed up and taken to the local Ronald McDonald House for other children and families in our community to enjoy.
Please do not buy any candy for this activity. Save that money to buy real food for our Thanksgiving drive! Questions? Contact Ms. Boudinet at dboudinet@ladueschools.net
Start our community giving today!

OB's Got Character!
November's Character Word of the Month is GENEROSITY! Please consider being GENEROUS with your time and joining us on Tuesday, November 18, at 7pm, at LHWHS for a special performance of UnSorted! The OBPTO and LEF were GENEROUS with their funds to support this performance and we want to be sure to make the most of it! It's the SORT of experience you won't want to miss, and your OB children would greatly benefit from seeing again! Please also consider bringing along siblings, and encourage your neighbors to attend, even if they don't currently have students attending any of the Ladue Schools! We want to be GENEROUS to our wonderful community and extend this opportunity to all community members. This play ends its tour at the end of November, so this will be your last opportunity to see it! We hope you will step into the "mixety" world of UnSorted with us while you still can!!! It truly is the SORT of experience you won't want to miss out on! Thank you in advance for helping to spread the word, and we hope to see all of you there! Please email Lori Humphrey at lhumphrey@ladueschools.net if you have any questions.
