Similarly to our Christmas concert, we will be meeting in the 2nd grade classroom in the big school. Please make sure your child has used the bathroom BEFORE you drop them off with us. 

After our Kindergarten class has performed on stage, we will return to the 2nd grade classroom where we will ask you to meet us there and please pick them up right away. You are then free to leave at that point or you may stay & watch the remainder of the concert as a family.

Week of 5/11

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a blessed Mother’s Day. Thank you all so   much for an incredible teacher appreciation week & all the amazing & thoughtful cards & gifts.

Unfortunately a stomach bug hit the Tironi household this weekend so I wasn’t able to come in today, and I am so so sad to have missed the first day of the final countdown but our class was in the best hands with Mrs. Carl & Mrs. Nowel today. Luckily, fingers crossed, looks like I should be back tomorrow!

Here is some important information for our week ahead: 

Tomorrow snack shop will be open so if you’d like to send $ labeled in folders for your child.

Wednesday is our “c is for camping day” so our students may dress down in any outdoor/comfortable/camping themed attire for a fun themed day. If you signed up for any donations for camping day, please send them in by Wednesday morning.

Thursday we will be attending the May crowning at 1:00 pm at church. Students are still to wear their gym uniform this day though.

Reading folders came home today with new weekly materials & our new spelling pattern (th digraph). Please keep folders at home and return them with completed work on Friday. 

Next Tuesday is our spring music concert for grades K-8 at 6:30 pm. This will run similarly to the Christmas concert we had in December where we will meet in the 2nd grade classroom at drop off. I am working on finalizing all the specific timing and other details from Mrs. Pachella tomorrow & will update you all to let you know.
