Week of March 12-16, 2011

Dear Second Grade Families,

The FLAT PEOPLE projects were great. Thank you for your guidance with this job. Hope you enjoyed going through the mail once again.

We thank all the moms and grandmas who volunteered for Primary Centers on Friday. You help to make this day fun and successful!

CINDERELLA: If you read the calendar for March, you may have noticed that there is a field trip (March 19) to see a live performance of Cinderella. Well, something happened with the production and it has been cancelled. We will be seeing a live performance here at school today. It is “Jesus of Nazareth”. Ask your child about this.
