Dear parents,

This Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are Parent Teacher Conferences, from 1.30 till 7 with a break from 5-5.30. If you haven’t signed up, please follow this link and create an account, or simply click on “Event Sign-Ups,” find my name and make an appointment. Here’s the link: https://www.trackitforward.com/site/mapa.

This means that Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are early outs. School finishes at 1 pm. Likewise, there is no school on President’s Day, Monday February 19th.

Wednesday is Valentines Day. The students normally bring in a box and we exchange candy and cards at the end of the school day (as it is an early out, this will be at around 12.30). Students are not permitted to eat candy in school.

The science fair is on the Wednesday of the following week. The 6th graders are required to be in the gym from roughly 9 – 11.30. They can be excused earlier once they have been judged 3 times. They need to have set up their poster board by no later than 8.40 am. We are still looking for judges, or anybody who is interested in scoring. If you think that you can judge or score, or know of anybody who can, please contact me ASAP.

Again, please email me with any questions.

With thanks – John
