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
