Dear parents,

Just a reminder for 5th grade parents that maturation is on  Tuesday March 6th starting at around 8.45. You are welcome to attend, girls are in the library and boys will be in my room (Room 18). The 4th and 6th graders will be either in the Kiva, and/or outside while maturation is going on.

The 6th graders are having a social dance on Friday March 9th from 3.30 – 5. Food is pot luck, 6th grade parents are welcome to provide their child with something suitable.

The JA Biztown 5th grade field trip is on Wednesday March 14th.  There are two 5th grade parents who have volunteered to go as chaperones, but if you are still interested, please let me know. Please return the permission slips to me ASAP and the requested donation/payment is $5. You can pay by cash or check, or through this online payment link: https://secureinstantpayments.com/sip/cart/event.php?EID=1573

Also, this Thursday March 1st is Maria Montessori Academy’s 4th Annual Literacy Night from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm. There are door prizes and you will be able to visit some enchanting worlds for Story Time, Trivia, Map Making, Wand Making, Karaoke, Participlay, Grammar Madlibs, Literacy Games, Watercolor Bookmarks, and Sight Word Twister! Lots of different events to go to!

Finally, a reminder that our School Gala is on Saturday March 17th with a St. Patrick’s Day theme. Always lots of fun with good food, friends, opportunities for prizes and lively auctions!

Thanks everybody and I hope you have a great week!

John
