Dear Second Grade Families,

Wow! I cannot believe that we only have two weeks left of school.  We will continue working hard until the last days of school so the children will be prepared for Third Grade.  This week we have free dress day on Wednesday because of our fundraising for the jog-a-thon.  We will have our Family Mass on June 6th at 8:30 a.m.   We will have a few friends from second grade participating in dressing the altar at our Mass on Friday.

Today we went on our field trip to Underwood Farms.  We had a blast!!!!   I hope you all are enjoying all the veggies and strawberries your child picked today.  I can’t wait to hear about how the veggies were used for dinner/lunch or snack.

Now, a Peek at our Week:
