SUNSET TIMES
April Edition 2023, Sunset Elementary School
Principal's Corner with Mrs. Montecucco
Dear Families,
As spring continues to blossom along with cute ladybugs like the ones above from Ms. Smithley's kindergarten class, it's great to find family activities outdoors. In fact, how fun would it be to create a spring bucket list of things to do together! Can you create a list that doesn't include screen time? Here are a few ideas to get you started!
- Stargaze
- Play a board game or puzzle
- Have a picnic
- Fly a kite
- Jump on a trampoline
- Go camping
- Play in the rain
Mrs. Winchell shared this great site too! Here is a site with lots of indoor and outdoor ideas (click here).
Sincerely,
Mrs. Montecucco

Congrats to our 2nd Trimester Reading Recipients!

- 4/19 - WMS and CMS principals and counselors visit Sunset
- 4/19 - CMS Parent Night
