May 2-6 Newsletter
Miss Fletcher & Mrs. Wiley
Happy Monday!
Please remember the May the 4th is both Star Wars day and parent information meeting for our Austin trip. Kids can dress up in Star Wars attire and have a fun "May the 4th be with you" day! Our Austin Meeting will be held at 7:15 in the library. You can enter through the library doors on the playground side of the school. We will be sending out an email with the topics discussed later on Wednesday for those who are unable to attend.
On a similar note, if you plan on driving down to meet us in Austin, please email your child's classroom teacher and let them know that you are going. Please include all others riding with you as well as a cell number that you can be reached. I will be making a text group so that I can keep you informed in case you get separated from the bus.
STAAR testing is next Monday and Tuesday. PLEASE send a lunch with your child on those days as we will be eating in the room!
