Happy Saturday Everyone,
I want to say a happy Mother’s Day to all you moms, grandmas, aunts, and everyone who helps and supports your children. Ms. Sara and I truly could not do our jobs without all your love and support so thank you and happy Mother’s Day. Don’t worry dads and grandpas, We won’t forget about you. We will make you something this week, you just might get it earlier than Father’s Day if your child decides they can’t wait.
The last box tops store of the year will be this Wednesday, May 15th. Please send your students box tops cut nicely. You can send them the day of or sooner and we will hold them for your child.
Field day will be Friday, May 17th. As of right now, the weather is calling for rain and low 60s. Please pay attention to the weather for this day and have your child dress appropriately. In the past on field days when it has been cold, many children have come dressed in a t-shirt and shorts with no jacket. It is miserable for us all to have those children cold and outside all morning.
Parent teacher conferences are the last week of school. They will be the afternoons of Tuesday May 21, Wednesday May 22, and Thursday May 23. The signs ups for these are already on Track it Forward. Students will be sharing their portfolios at these conferences so please bring your child with you. These days are also half days at school so children will need to be picked up at 1 p.m. We also have the book fair at the same time as conferences. This is the best one of the year because usually books are buy on get one free. That Friday, May 24 will also be a half day and the last day of school.
This year we have two dress up days at the end of the year. The first will be Thursday, May 23. This day is crazy day. Kids can dress up with crazy socks, hair, hats, etc. The second will be the last day of school which will be sports or tie-die day.
We will have our annual summer pool party earlier this year. It will be Friday, June 7 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. It will be at North Shore Aquatic Center across from the school and we hope to see you all there.
Level 3 parents:
- The Level 3 end of year party will be the afternoon of this Monday, May 13th. The sign up is on track it forward.
- Level 3’s bridging ceremony will be Wednesday, May 21st in the Jr. High gym at 10:30 a.m.
On a last note, I want to let you all know that Ms. Sara and I will definitely be returning next year. So all you lucky level 1 and 2 parents get us again! Level 3 parents, I choose not to think about what will happen at the end of two weeks. I love having the kids for three years but at the end of the third, it is so hard.
I love you all and am grateful as always for all you do!!!!
