Week 30
Posted on Sunday, April 13th, 2014 at 10:04 pmThis week our 3rd graders accomplished their first SAGE test! This coming week they will take 2 more tests and be all done!!
Thank you to Kim, Irene, and Jen who came to help with breakfast!
If you ladies wish to come Tuesday and Thursday, or anyone else wants to help we decided the menu for this week’s 3rd grade breakfasts will be:
Tuesday- Waffles, strawberries, apple juice. We have plates and forks, but could use some more cups. We need some waffle irons, supplies to make batter, butter and syrup. Please email me ASAP and let me know if you can help out with supplies/cooking!
Thursday- French toast, any left over strawberries form Tuesday, apple juice. We will need 1-2 griddles and supplies to make French toast. Email me if you are interested in helping/cooking!
All 3rd grades need to pack a small snack, bring their own gum, have a water bottle, and a pillow to sit on for testing.
Tuesday afternoon will be the practice of our school vacating to the Fire Station across the street (our safe place). I am going to let you know now and the kids ONE reminder Monday that they NEED to have slippers on. A lot of our students are not wearing theirs even though we ask everyday. They either have outgrown theirs, took them home, or lost them. Tuesday, as a natural consequence when the drill starts and we practice, those who don’t have slippers will be walking outside to the fire station as they are. Next school year slippers will be part of the dress code. Please help your child to always wear their slippers too! Please start becoming familiar with the emergency drill taking place the beginning of May. We will pretend a lockdown situation and have students evacuate to the fire station. You will be called and HAVE to come pick them up. This will happen May 8th between the time of 12-3pm. I need you to update any numbers to the office and any emergency contact people. If you are the primary guardians you can pick them up or the people you put as your child’s emergency contact. I WILL NOT release any child who is not on that sheet.
