It is hard to believe we have come to the end of the year. What a crazy year it has been. Thank you all for allowing me the pleasure of teaching your children, I will miss you all next year. Some final announcements.
6th Grade Bridging – May 20 at 6:30 PM
A Zoom link will be sent out today. We ask that your child wears nice clothes, and that they maintain all meeting grace and courtesy. The zoom link will be sent to STUDENT emails. (edit: these actually went out to parent emails. I thought it would be safer that way. Please check your emails for this.) Parents can be in the background listening, but we are trying to keep the amount of people on the call to a minimum. The bridging ceremony will be recorded and sent out to sixth grade parents afterwords so it can be shared with family members who were not able to attend.
Parent Teacher Conferences – May 19, 20, 21
If you have not yet signed up, please do so here: https://www.wejoinin.com/sheets/siwqa
I hope to see you all, let you know how your child was doing before the virus, let them show you the work they are most proud of, and have a conversation. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions or concerns you might have concerning next year. A zoom invitation will be sent out to parents the day preceding the conference you signed up for. That zoom link will be the same for everyone. When you join, you will be waiting in a “lobby” and I will invite you in when I have ended the conference with whomever is before you. If you have and questions or concerns about how that will work, please shoot me an email.
Upper Elementary End-of-the-Year Parade – May 21, 4-5 PM
Drive through celebration of the upper elementary with all of your teachers and assistants. This is an opportunity for us to say goodbye after a crazy year. There will likely be some crazy outfits… some music… perhaps even a special surprise for students who attend! So PLEASE come and drive through. We look forward to seeing you!
June Class Party – June 20, 6-8 PM
With the governor moving us into the yellow phase of COVID, it looks like this will be able to move forward! The Johansen family has asked me to invite you to a (socially distanced) summer class party, with special guests: Ms. Sarah and Ms. Laura! Its the perfect way for us to say goodbye after such a crazy year. We know it is during summer vacation and you all have all kinds of things going on. But we would love to see you there if you can make it.
It will take place at the Lion’s Club Park off of 22nd and Harrison on Saturday, June 20th. Come anytime between 6-8 PM! Stay for a little, or stay for a lot!
Portfolio Pick Up
Ms. Sarah has graciously grabbed everyone’s portfolios from the school to keep them from getting thrown away. She will be at the school quite often this week helping close things down. Please contact me to set up a time to get those from her. If you are not able to pick up portfolios before hand, they will be available at the parade on Thursday. Anything left over on Thursday will get tossed, so make sure you get all of that amazing work!
