Hi,

This post only applies to our level 3 students.  This week starting tomorrow, each 3rd grade student will have the opportunity to shadow in Ms. Laura’s, our mentor classroom, for the day.  The students are aware which day they will be attending her classroom.  If your child happens to miss the day we are scheduled, we will do our best to find an alternative day.

Rise, end of year state testing, for our level 3 students will take place on both Wednesday, May 8th and Thursday, May 9th.  We will be completing these starting at 9:00 a.m.  Please make certain your child is well rested and has had a hearty breakfast.  Encourage your child to focus, do their best, and celebrate all their hard work.

In alignment with their hard work, we like to celebrate each year by having the end of year third grade party.  This will take place on Monday, May 13th, in the afternoon.  We will be sending out a sign up sheet soon for chaperone support and supplies.  The kids are always so excited and we appreciate your support with this event.

Our last and final big event will be the 3rd grade bridging ceremony.  For those of you new to Montessori, this is our graduation ceremony as they enter into the upper elementary.  This is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, May  21st.  I currently do not have a time, but do know this is an early out day at 1:00 p.m., so I can assume it will be in the morning hours. Details will be coming soon, but please mark your calendar for the event.

If you have questions or concerns regarding any of these events, please let me know.
