May News and Upcoming Dates

Dear Families,

Next week is teacher appreciation week. Our PAC is sponsoring a luncheon on Friday and we are so thankful for that and appreciative of all our families do for us.

We have a very busy schedule in the upcoming 6 weeks with field trips, special days at schools, field days, concerts and projects. Please be sure to double check with your classroom teacher if you are unsure on anything specific related to your child's classroom for projects or field trips.

With the nice weather approaching, (hopefully) we are still in need of small water bottles for the students. We like to stock up in the nurses office and the main office. This will also help us out in the fall. Please feel free to drop off water bottles at car rider or bring them to the main office.

This week we have grade 3 Math MCAS taking place. This will be from Monday-Thursday and you should have your individual class schedules for that from your teacher. Friday will be a 1/2 day for our C.I.T day. Students will be dismissed at 12:00 and no lunches will be served. As always if your child is going home by a different means of transportation that day then we will need a note.

We will be having Island day again this year on June 11th. It has been a tradition for students and staff. We are ordering leis this year through the PAC for all students. It will take place after lunches and we will be sending out a letter to describe the day as we have in years past.

Just to make parents aware we are going down to five first grade classrooms next year due to enrollment and we will maintain the same amount of classrooms for second and third grade. In addition, Mrs. Lauren Cameron will be teaching third grade and Ms. Sadowski will be teaching second grade next year.
