Only 12 more days of school left this year, can you believe it?! Look out for the book fair this week (information below), it is going to be a great event, thanks to our amazing PTA.
Our Dolphtones (choir) are performing at California Adventure this Wednesday! We are SO proud of all their hard work, it was an audition process and they had to do very well to be selected. Congratulations to Mrs. Corso and everything she's done to get them ready for this amazing event! Pictures and video to come.
Open house is this Tuesday, May 24th at 5:30pm. Unfortunately we will not be able to use the parking at Madison, since they have an event that same evening. Please arrive early to allow plenty of time to park in our lot or at Lake Park. Please talk with your child's teacher for the schedule of events, but you should plan to spend about 20 minutes in each classroom. We can't wait for you to see all the work your children have been doing this year!
Thank you for your partnership in your child's learning.
