Thursday - April 15, 2010

Homework
1. Mastering Math Facts, Set L. Please study. There will be a test tomorrow. Do not write on these sheets at all.

2. If you did not pass the spelling pretest earlier this week, there will be a test tomorrow. Please refer to Spelling City for review.


Miscellaneous
The children did a lovely job today with Mass. They represented our class, school, and families very well!

Remember, tomorrow is Spirit Day. The children are allowed to wear casual clothes and our school colors of red and white. Show your school spirit! We also will be having an Enrichment Program on animals in the morning. It should prove to be a busy but enjoyable Friday!

As the weather warms up, some children have asked about wearing shorts on uniform or color days. Please note that the school dress/uniform code does not allow shorts to be worn until May 1st. At that time, students in grades K-5 may wear navy blue uniform shorts on regular days and appropriate length, non-uniform shorts on casual days. Please refer to the handbook or call the school office if you have questions.

An opt-out form went home on Tuesday with the children regarding a program regarding Touching Safety. We are asking that this form be returned by tomorrow; only if you
DO NOT want your child to participate in this course. If you have questions, please contact Cindy Thomas in the school office.

Please consider participating in our school fundraiser, Education First. There is still time to get your list of contacts into the school office. Please see Mrs. Strong if you have any questions.

The Star Stride 5K Run will be this Saturday, April 17th, at 9:00 AM at St. Stephen. The run will benefit St. Stephen's STAR fund which assists families with tuition costs. Registration can be completed on-line. Go to the St. Stephen web site and follow the link. Cost is $25.00 for adults. Hope to see you there!

Enjoy the lovely weather this evening! It is supposed to get a bit chiller tomorrow!
