Mother's Day Tea Party:
Kindergarten will be having their annual Mothers Day Tea Party on May 10th at 8am. Please check your calendar and make room to be here in the cafeteria for with your child for tea and snacks. The students will have a mother's day present and song for you. It is a very special day and we ask that if you are unable to make it, please have a grandmother, aunt or someone come in your place. Invitations will be coming home soon. You must RSVP for this event.
Homework:
First grade is approaching fast! When your child gets to first grade, they will have the opportunity to earn "Fun Friday". One thing students must do to earn Fun Friday is complete there homework and their home writing journal. Students who do not turn in their homework in first grade are expected to finish their homework at
Study Hall.
That being said, in an effort to help your child take responsibility of their own homework, students who complete both their daily homework and share homework will earn their toy time on Friday. Those who have unfinished homework, will complete it during toy time.
