A few announcements for third grade!
Tomorrow, May 10th, intermediate grades (3rd-5th) will be performing in their Spring Program. The performance will take place at 6:30 PM in the Biedermann Hall. A flyer regarding costumes and what to wear were sent home with your child last week. If your child is not able to attend the program, please let me know via email.
Tomorrow, May 10th is a free dress day! With their persuasive speeches, third grade was able to convince Mrs. Benner to add an extra free dress day to the school calendar. We chose our $1.00 donation to go towards St. Jude.
Friday, May 12th is a half-day and our annual Jog-a-thon! Please make sure to turn in any donations and pre-order forms (photos, shout-outs, Kona Ice). Parents, if Kona Ice was purchased for yourself or any other family members, those tickets will be in the same envelope with your child. Also, if your child is interested in buying from our book sale, please make sure money is sent to school so that they may be exchanged for tickets.
