Field Trip
We will be meeting the counselors, touring the middle school, learning about next year and practicing opening up lockers on Friday. The field trip is free and this is one we won't need parent chaperones. We will eat lunch as usual, so no need for a sack lunch. Jog-A-Thon shirts are not required.
Library Books
The last day for student check-out will be Friday, May 4th. All student library books will be due back to the library by Friday, May 11th.
Book Fair
This week is the Spring Book Fair. We will preview on Monday and students may shop during the rest of the week between 10:30-1:00 and 6:30-8 on Thursday.

ISTEP and NWEA
We are done with ISTEP tomorrow. Yippee! However, next Mondy-Wednesday will be NWEA, so we aren't out of the testing woods yet. Almost though. We will test from 9:30 until everyone is finished in the morning.
Kleenex
We are down to our last two boxes. If you have an extra at home and would like to donate it to our classroom, that would be lovely. Since we are going on month six of winter, the sniffles are lingering. Thank you!

Kroger Gives Back!
Now that Kroger is rocking our worlds with their new stores and low prices, they’re also going to help our school!
If you haven’t gotten a Kroger Plus card yet, sign up for one and then add Union Elementary to your Community Rewards organization name.
If you already have a Kroger card simply hop on your computer and follow these easy steps…
1.) Scroll down to the bottom of the page.
2.) Click on “Kroger Community Rewards”
3.) Click on “View your rewards details”
4.) Scroll to “Community Rewards” and click “Edit”
5.) Type in 31364 and hit “search”
6.)Click on Union Elementary, and hit “Enroll”
Let Grandma and Grandpa know how easy that was, and get them signed up too. Now Kroger will give Union a percentage of what you spend which helps in many ways. This small action helps buy school supplies, instruments for music class, and much more. Thanks for your support. If you have any questions or need help please contact Brittany Henney at Brittanykay1@gmail.com
2nd Semester Volunteers
The second semester is here! If you are interested in helping me prepare some things for the classroom or possibly work with a small group, I would love to have your help! I am flexible with times, so just let me know the time you will come. I have a break from 8:30-9:00 each day so this is an easy time for me to show you what to do. My lunch varies on the other days between 12:00-1:00. Thank you in advance for all of your help!
