Hello Everyone,
I cannot believe we are down to the last week of school already. This year seems to have flown by but also gone super slow. Unfortunately, it is not supposed to be warm this last week of school. It is supposed to be 50s and rainy so please make sure you child wears warm clothing and brings a jacket or coat to school. Unless it is extremely rainy, we will be going outside to recess.
Don’t forget to sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences. They are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday starting at 1:40 p.m. There are still plenty of sign ups available. Please go to Track it Forward to sign up for a slot. Your children will be presenting their work, so please bring them with you to their conference if possible. Here is the link: https://www.trackitforward.com/site/389525/events. Also, if you are able, I know both MAPA and us teachers would be grateful if you could sign up to help with the PTC dinners. The book fair will also be open in the library during conferences. It is by one get one free.
Monday is our only full day of school this week. Tuesday – Friday are all half days. Please arrange for your child to be picked up at 1 p.m. these days.
Here is the schedule for bridging ceremonies this week:
Monday, May 20th – Early Childhood Bridging – 10:30am – Addition Gym

This Thursday is crazy day, students can wear crazy socks, hats, or have crazy hair. This Friday is sport or tie-dye day. Students can wear their favorite sports memorabilia or tie-dye.
Friday is the last day of school. We will be cleaning up the classroom this week and sending home all your student’s things. Please make sure they bring a backpack this week. We will be sending things home everyday and they need a way to carry it.
Enjoy your last week of kids in school.
Thanks.
