Parents,
Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend! I absolutely did!
My little family of four had our first wiffle ball game in the park for Mother’s Day. We are huge baseball fans at our house!!! (Go BRAVES!!!) So, it was so exciting to actually have our 4 year old and 5 year old play with us and really get it! The boys won…6-5…but my daughter and I are ready for our rematch!!! May not sound perfect to others, but it was perfect for me! Hope all you fabulous mommas had a perfect Mother’s Day too!!
Things to note:
- Yearbooks will be delivered May 21st. At that time, there will be a limited supply available for purchase.
- The Jog-a-thon is this Thursday, May 17th!! Please make sure that your first grader comes to school this day, ready to run! The Jog-a-thon is one of our most important school fundraisers. The funds raised help us to fund the cost of our P.E. teacher. I believe having P.E. in our schools is sooooo important. More importantly, it is critical to raise healthy children who love to exercise and stay fit! Please help me by encouraging them to do their best for this fabulous event! We are hoping that all students will raise at least $25. If your child is able to raise more than that…prizes will be handed out!! Who wants a $200 gift card to Scheels!!!??? Or an electric guitar!!!??? Or a new bike!!!??? Information went home last week! If you have questions before Thursday, please let me know or call the office!!!
- Field Day is coming up, Tuesday, June 19th. Fabulous morning of fun! We need one or two parents to volunteer to help man our station! Please let me know if you are available!!!
- Last day for High Frequency Word testing will be Thursday, June 7th. Practice, practice, practice until the end!
- Last spelling list will be given out June 4th and last test will be June 8th. The last two weeks of school will not have spelling lists/tests!
