Dear Kindergarten Families,
Many thanks for helping with Primary Centers! We appreciate it. 🙂 If you are in need of service hours, please let me know. Looking ahead….April 15 is the last Primary Centers and May 13 is the date for our annual Jog-a-thon. Both are times to volunteer and earn service hours.
Tomorrow report cards come home, please sign and return the envelope. The report card is to keep for your records. Speaking of that, your students have worked very hard this past semester and it shows! So proud of them.
Our farm field trip is this Thursday ! We will be back for lunch. A light snack will be provided. Reminder for dress: jeans/ non-uniform pants, older shoes (might still be a bit muddy), school polo, and school sweater /jacket. We are going early it might be a chilly.
