Week of April 20th




Dear Parent/s,

I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend. I want to congratulate our two students, Stella and Lucia, who performed in SCAN on Friday. They both did a fantastic job and their classmates and I were so proud of them! Check out the pictures below :)

Lucia singing in the Youth Choir!

Stella reading her poem!



We have a pretty calm week but here are a few reminders:

- There will be a dress down day on Wednesday. Please send in $1.

- I still need someone to mystery read from 2:00-2:30 on Thursday. Let me know if you are interested!

- The kids did a great job on their tests last week. They will be sent home today. Please sign and return them tomorrow.

I can't believe how fast this year has flown by. It always amazes me at this time of year to think back to September and to see how much each child has grown. The progress the kids have made in such a short amount of time truly amazes me. A great part of that is the help and support from you all, so thank you!

Have a great week!

Miss Tosti

Week of April 8th

Dear Parent/s,

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter break! We are now in the homestretch! These next 2-3 months will definitely fly by and summer will be here before we know it! This week we will get right back in the swing of things. We will begin a new story, start back up with timed math and continue to work with money.

Here are a few reminders:

- Spring uniforms start Monday, April 13th.

- We will have homework this week.

- Tests will start back up next week.

- I will be tutoring down the shore all summer. If you are interested or know anyone who is please feel free to pass along my name and email :) My flyer can also be found on the school website.

- Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers for my Dad. His surgery went well and he is expected to come home today. He is so appreciative of everyone's prayers and support and he is already anxious to get back to SKS!

Have a great week :)
