Hi Everyone,

I have a few items to share with you as we head into the weekend.  I hope you are all able to enjoy some family time.

*'Change for Change' is a fundraiser that is going to be going on next week.  This is being led by our Leadership students to help fundraise for clean water in Equador.  If you would like to send a donation of any loose change you may have at home that would be greatly appreciated
*Our class has won a hot chocolate from Starbucks (as part of our Club Red Reading).  I would like to go as a class one morning right after the bell.  I am asking parents who would be interested in walking with us to see me next week regarding days you are available so that I can select a date.  There will be no permission form for this as the walking field trip form you completed at the beginning of the school year will suffice.  Once I find out when parents are available I will post a date.  It will most likely be the week after our field trip.
*If you have signed up to drive for the field trip please make sure you have an abstract on record.  We are in need of one more driver if anyone else is available.  Thank you!

Have a  great weekend, everyone!

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all enjoy a fantastic long weekend!

Updates/Reminders

*now that the weather is continuing to warm up, please remember to send water bottles and put sunscreen on your child before they come to school
*please sign up for the Rocky Point field trip if you have not already done so.  If you have volunteered to drive you will need a driver's abstract on file in the school.  Please contact me if you need me to send home the necessary paperwork.
*Mrs. Watkins has sent out a portal update that this month's assembly has been moved to Friday.  Our class is performing a song about rain (with Mrs. Rowledge-Toscani's class).  Please send your child in blue/grey for this performance.  Thank you!


Have a great weekend, everyone!

*Next Friday (May 20th) is a professional development day and Monday is Victoria day

*A big thank you to Mrs. Saunders (Charlotte from Div. 7's mom) for teaching a gymnastics unit.  Please ask your children what they learned.  We will now be moving onto some track and field activities
