I hope you had a great Holiday Weekend. The students seemed to enjoy the Carnival. The dunk tank was fun. A Huge Thank You to Mrs. Jen Slabic who did majority of the planning for the Carnival. A big thank you to those volunteers who helped out. It wouldn’t be possible without you.
The was a terrific turn out for the Pastries with Parents on Friday morning. Thank you. The students love it when you show up for them.

Mr. Cote
There are a few events this week such as field days and field trips that you will have received information on from your classroom teacher. Please pay attention to the backpacks this week as there may still be permission slips in them.
We will begin collecting ChromeBooks this week Monday. Please make sure your child’s ChromeBook and charger are at school on Monday.
There will be a substitute teacher in classrooms one day this week for each grade as the teachers will be compiling the final assessment data that students worked on last school year.
This Friday, May 26th is Pastries with Parents. You will have received your grade level time from your teacher. We’ve staggered the times so parking won’t be as bad. Please report to the gym first and then you will be dismissed to go to your child’s classroom. This is not a good time for a parent teacher conference, but you can ask your teacher to set up a time for a conversation.
This Friday after lunch 1:45 we will have our Carnival. We don’t allow students from other schools to come to this event. The is for our students, and it is a reward for positive behavior they have shown this school year. Students are expected to be on their best behavior for this event.
