THANK YOU: Tuesday night provided a wonderful PTA performance, Book Fair and Gallery Night! Thank you for always supporting our school.
SPRING FEVER…With increased frequency I’ve been hearing “Oops, I forgot” as I collect homework, planners, and reading logs. We still have about seven more weeks of school and we need each of our students to be present and prepared for the day. Please continue to make school a priority even in the busy days of spring sports and outdoor activities.
SAVE RECYCLING: We will be creating a STEAM project during reading the first week of May. Please save tissues boxes, yogurt type containers with or without lids, egg cartons, cereal or snack boxes, and plastic bottles. Due to lack of space students can start bringing in April 30th - May 2nd. We are looking forward to this learning opportunity. Thank you!
MATH: Next Friday, April 22, we will be exploring fluid measurements. Please send in empty, clean containers representing a cup, pint, quart, half gallon, or gallon. Thanks!
