Room 23 and the Gang
The Time Has Come to Say Goodbye
The Final Stretch (May 11-15)
This is the last week of academic learning for the 2019-2020 school year. Although remote learning has had plenty of challenges, it has also had countless successes. We began in what seemed like a blurry maze of confusion and ended in a place where quite a lot of work was accomplished. I thank you all for your willingness to help your child be successful during the soft closure of the schools.
Let's end strong,
Ms. Idso

Remember to come to school this week to pick up your school supplies.
This week, families will be able to pick up personal belongings from Bickel. Grade levels will be staggered around the curb of the school's playground in order to maintain social distancing. (Just like the sack lunch pick-up, you may remain in your vehicle.) Please take the next week to prepare your schedules so that you can pick up the supplies at the assigned time.
**I will be at the school each day to pass out supplies, but on Wednesday I will be leaving at 1:15 to go to a doctor's appointment.**
Wednesday, May 13th 10:00AM-2:00PM - Only students with last names that begin with H-O
Thursday, May 14th 10:00AM-2:00PM - Only students with last names that begin with P-Z
Next week, the week of the 18th, Chromebooks will need to be returned to the school. When I have the specific dates/times, I will post that information on DOJO and/or email.
I hope to see you this week when you pick up your supplies.
