K-2 Concert Early Release
Next Wednesday is our K-2 Spring Concert, and K-2 singers should have brought home an early sign-out sheet this week. If you plan to take your child home after the concert next Wednesday, please fill out this form and return it to your child’s teacher by Monday, May 1. Children with forms returned by the 1st will return to their classrooms after the concert to collect their things, and immediately be dismissed to the lunchroom/commons to go home with their families. Students without returned forms will need to be signed out in the front office, and parents should prepare for a potentially lengthy wait.
If you are planning for sibling(s) to attend the concert, please indicate that on this form as well. For safety reasons, siblings will be called from class just before the concert begins to locate their families in the bleachers. Please do not interrupt students in their classrooms.

Teacher Requests
Please know that we do our best to honor as many requests as we can, but that sometimes accommodating all requests is not possible. Requests made after April 30th will not be accepted.
Counseling Corner
As your 9- to 14-year old matures and grows, so do his or her interests and abilities. Although it may seem like only yesterday (and it may have been) that your tween was watching younger shows, she may suddenly be ready for new responsibilities and privileges.
Be an eParent®! As your tween matures, work out new responsibilities and privileges around digital media. Allow your tween more choices in buying video games or downloading music (but pay attention to the ratings).
