Mrs. Wilson

There is a lot of information in my newsletter this week. Next week is a short week so I will not be sending Friday folders or a newsletter. We will not have a spelling list next week. There is no school next Thursday, April 18-Monday, April 22^nd.

The Language Arts assessment projects are going well. The students worked so hard this week. Next week they will be finishing them and presenting them to the class. You will not find many papers in the Friday folder this week because the students were busy working on the assessment. Word list books were not sent home this week or next week.

The last day for to order books from the book order Tuesday, April 16^th. This is the last book order of the year.

Wednesday, April 17th is a dress down day. More information will be sent from the office. It is the reward for meeting the goal for labels for Race for Education.

The week after Easter is spirit week. There are different things the students may do each day of that week. More information will be sent home next week.

Friday, April 26^th is the Race for Education. Students may dress down on this day. If the weather is nice, you may want to put sunscreen on your child. Make sure to have them wear appropriate shoes for running/walking. Also, send a water bottle if possible. Our scheduled time for running/walking is 9:00-10:00.

Our field trip to the zoo is coming up soon. Any parents wanting to volunteer must return the parent volunteer form by Wednesday, April 24th. Student permission forms will be sent at the end of the month. I wanted to give you a “heads up” that the zoo does not allow students to use a zoo pass for a field trip. This is something that has changed in the last few years.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Wilson
