It has been such a fun filled week and the students have been so excited to see the sunshine as they walk outside for recess! Thursday morning we walked into quite the surprise Monteith had been visited by Leprechauns' over night!!! Our Young five's and kindergarten students had worked hard on their amazing Leprechaun trips, yet somehow all the Leprechauns' made it through with out getting trapped!!

Monteith Book Fair will be May 3-6, 2022
This year’s Monteith Book Fair will be May 3-6, 2022, and after 7 years of service as our Monteith Book Fair Chair, Lora Tod will be transitioning to fully being a Parcell’s Mom after this year. For that reason, we are recruiting new members for the Book Fair Committee that want to be involved with the planning and leadership going forward. Ideally, these Chair people would be mentored by Lora this year, and then continue the job next year to ensure a smooth transition. Committee positions include:
· Head Chair/Finance Chair – Scheduling, Promotions, and Financial Matters
· Preview Chair – Teacher and Student Wish Lists
· All For Books/Fundraising Chair
· Volunteer Coordinator
Please let Lora know if you would like to be part of Book Fair planning by emailing her at loraftod@gmail.com. Thank you!
Fan Faces for all occasions!
