Notes from the Teacher:
Our AR picnic is Friday of this week. (Pray for no
rain!!!) STUDENTS
WILL NOT NEED TO BRING THEIR
BACKPACKS TO SCHOOL FRIDAY. Thank you to all the volunteers. We couldn’t do it
without you help! I just love the picnic. It’s always lots of fun
and the kids have a blast! If you are volunteering, please meet us at the
park by 8:35 or so. The 2nd and 3rd grade students
will leave school at 8:30. We will load the buses around 8:45 for the
park. If you are a volunteer, please work with our other volunteers from
our room to gather 2 picnic tables and find a spot in the shade close to the
playground. We will meet there for lunch and the children will have their
drinks there as well. Thanks! STUDENTS NEED TO BRING 2 SCREWTOP DRINKS TO SCHOOL
FRIDAY FOR THE AR PICNIC. PLEASE PUT THEIR NAME ON BOTH DRINKS. NO
COKES, PLEASE! I know we will have a wonderful time!
-Thank you to all who have volunteered to help with
the AR picnic! I really appreciate
it. I know how difficult it is to get
off from work.
