-Report cards went home on Friday. The envelope contains the third quarter report card and any awards your child received for the quarter.
*Please remember to remove the report card from the envelope, sign the envelope, and return it to school so it can be used one more time this year!
-This Tuesday, March 21st is our field trip to La Comedia. Important information about the trip went home last week. Please remember to have your child wear his/her purple class t-shirt. (If your child does not have one, any purple shirt will work!) We will depart from school around 9:30 and will plan to be back around 2:00. This will be an exciting day of learning and fun!
-Moms, mark your calendars for 2:30 on Thursday, May 11th! Our annual Mother's Day Poet-Tea will be that afternoon. It's a special event you won't want to miss. More information will be coming as we draw closer to the date!
