May 11 - May 15

We hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend and enjoyed all of your treats!  Thank you to all of the parents who sent in supplies, snacks, notes, and gifts last week during Teacher Appreciation Week.  Thank you also to the parents who came and sat with our classes and sent in food for the teachers on Friday.  You all made it a wonderful week!
Due to the Blue Bell Ice Cream recall, our lunchroom will no longer be selling ice cream on Fridays!
Wednesday we will have Field Day from 8:30 - 9:00.  Make sure your child wears tennis shoes to school that morning!  For lunch that day, we will be getting sack lunches and going to the pavilion at the back of the school to have lunch on the lawn.  Your child won't need anything special for that.  We will only be staying for our lunch time and then we will be going back to our rooms. 
We will have our Honor's Day May 15th at 11:15.  This is our version of a graduation ceremony.  We will be having a pizza lunch after the ceremony in our classrooms.  Please make plans for at least one person in your family to attend!  Every child gets an award and another special item and we like for them to have a family member there to celebrate with them.  *Parking for awards day will be in the BACK of the school due to the amount of people that will be there and the limited space up front!* You will also be able to sign your child out in the classroom after the awards program and lunch. 

Our last day of school will be May 21st. THEY WILL NOT NEED BACKPACKS OR FOLDERS! We will dismiss that day at 12:30. Report cards will be sent home that day with your child.  If you know that your child will not be at school that day, you can send in a self addressed, stamped (TWO stamps) envelope and we will mail you their report card.  If your child does not come, you can still come by the school anytime until 12:30 to pick up their report card from us.  Otherwise, their report cards will go in our mailboxes in the front office and you can pick it up over the summer. 
We hope you all have a great week! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to let us know! We're almost finished!
