April News
From the Principal's Desk......
I would like to thank everyone for coming to Parent Teacher Conferences last month. It was a wonderful turnout. It’s always great to talk about the successes of your children together.
The Moberly School District will hold their annual Kindergarten Screening on April 8th at the Moberly Early Childhood Learning Center. Please call 660-269-2693 to sign-up if you haven't already.
PTO's Spring Book Fair will be held the week of April 22nd. Please check Friday Folders for more information to come.
Thanks so much.
Online Registration
Additional information and instructions for using Online Registration will be provided in the next few weeks. In addition, new students will be enrolled in August using the Parent Portal. Additional information and instructions for new student enrollment will be provided later this summer. We hope parents find this process convenient and easy to use.
Library News
The voting was close. The second place winner was MADELINE FINN AND THE LIBRARY DOG, by Lisa Papp. Madeline does NOT like to read. But when she starts to share stories with a dog at the library, she finds books to be much more enjoyable.
All ten nominees are available at the school library, as well as the public library.
Remember, April will be the last month that books are checked out. Please make sure all books are returned by early May, and that lost books are paid for. Thank you.

Reading Tip of the Month: Just like riding a bike, playing a sport, or swimming, the more practice a child has in reading, the better reader they will become. Students will soon be taking their final DRA (Reading Assessment) for the year. To ensure success on this assessment, it is important that your child read daily. Remember that rereading a book can help to build confidence, fluency and a love of books.
Some great books that will help you celebrate Spring:
The Easter Bunny that overslept by Priscilla & Frederico Friedrich
Miz Fannie Mae’s Fine New Easter Hat by Melissa Milick
Happy Reading!
