REMINDERS:
- Our Easter Brunch will be taking place next Tuesday, 3/31 at 10:30am. A note was sent home with your child last week requesting a specific item and a fruit. Please send in all items by Friday.
- The Kindergarten, First, and Second grade classes will be taking a field trip to go see the Wizard of Oz next Wednesday at the Bellmore Theatre. A permission slip has already been sent home. The cost of the trip is $10.00 for the children and an additional $10 for any adult that wishes to attend. Adults need to provide their own transportation. Please send in the money and permission slips by this Wednesday, March 25th.
- Encourage your child to READ every night to strengthen their skills. Don’t forget you can have them read all different things – the back of a cereal box, a favorite book, a magazine, a comic book, a card, posters. Everything counts as practice!
- Please be sure to check and sign all your child’s homework each night. This is to make sure that your child understands the concepts being taught in class. It is also important that your child’s work is neat and accurate. Encourage your child to do their best work!
