Look into our week 4/27-5/1

Good morning parents and guardians,

I hope everyone had a great work week! We are getting closer to the end (the students are in the brother and sister phase), and a few of our kiddos are ready for summer. Please remind them to always try their best and follow all of the rules. It would be great if you could talk to them about keeping their hands to themselves (and their entire body) and of course raising their hand to speak or stand. THANK YOU in advance for working with us on this.

                  Here is some important news from the PTO and dates to keep in mind:

Please feel free to email me or stop by with any questions or concerns.
Also, please be sure to check online grades. Parents were given access to our grades books at the beginning of the school year. This is a great way to see how your child is doing in class. If your need your access information please see Sarah in the office.

Enjoy the weekend!

Thank you, 
Miss. Maciel
