Spring Break
Spring Break is next week, April 7th - April 11th! Have fun, and try to get outside and play!
Last Day of School
Mr. Loring has asked teachers to inform you that Mr. Poe has PROPOSED that the last day of school for students will be June 3rd. However, this still has to be approved by the Board of Education during their meeting on April 17th. As soon as we know a definite date, I will let you know for sure.
Freedom Center Field Trip
Just a reminder that the field trip to the freedom center is Thursday, April 17th. This is the Thursday after we get back from Spring Break. If you have not already sent in the money for this, it is due ASAP. Please have the permission slips and money returned no later than Tuesday, April 15th. Remember, students need to pack their lunch for this trip, or purchase a packed lunch from the cafeteria.
Report Cards
Report cards were sent home today, Friday, April 4th. Please sign and return these after spring break. If you do not receive your child's report card, please contact me and I will have Mr. Jackson print another copy for you.
