Less than a week left before we start school. Just a few housekeeping items.
First of all, I need to sincerely apologize for a goof up on the supply list. I failed to put a 3 ring binder on it. It can be 1-2 inches and also binder dividers. If you have already dropped off supplies, just get the binder here when you can. We won’t need them until we start cultural which will be about the 3rd week of school so it is no rush to have them.
For all level 1s and new students: On Friday is new student orientation from 1 – 1:45. We will be getting the students familiar with the classroom, locker and bathroom location, and doing some fun get to know you games. If you are unable to get your child to this, we will just plan on seeing them Monday.
Saturday morning starting at 8 is a pancake breakfast and playground upkeep. It is approximately $5 a person. It is the same price as last year. I would love it if you could come. I will be there with Baby Sloane and I hear the pancakes are delicious.
This year’s 5K is on September 13, 3014. With this date fast-approaching, we are having a planning meeting on Wednesday, August 13, at 4:00pm. It will be at the school. We will be firming up our plan of action and dividing up job duties. If you’re unable to attend the meeting but would like to help with the planning of this event, please let Dore Elmer know and she can let you know what you can do! Anyone is welcome to attend or help. This is a fundraiser for the 6th grade field trip.
School starts next Monday, August 18th. It will be early out every day next week so plan on picking up your child at 1 pm. Don’t forget to sign up for snack. The link is http://wejoinin.com/sheets/rizyn.
