Mrs. Stevens' Fourth Grade

May 17th, 2019

Dear Families,

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with your kiddos this year! This group is a kind and funny bunch that works really hard. I also appreciate all of the teacher appreciation gifts. I definitely felt the love! This week we focused on finishing our Derby cars, learning how to write cursive, and planning our summer vacation. The students have researched how to rent cars, buy airplane tickets, find hotels, and choose entertainment in their vacation city. They had to do all of this on a budget! It was awesome watching them use math we've learned throughout the school year. The Derby races went great! In our class Keelie won first place, so she was able to race the other 4th grade classes. I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday!


Thank you,

Amy Stevens

School Announcements

Lunch on the Lawn

Our annual Lunch on the Lawn will be May 20th. We invite all families to join their child for lunch on the last day of school. Feel free to bring blankets, lawn chairs and/or beach towels. The Sweeny Cafe' will be selling lunch in lunch pails for regular school lunch prices. Adults can purchase one for $3.60 per lunch. Please order your lunch ahead so we can be prepared. Also, the icecream truck will be here with treats. Please send in $1 for ice cream for your child. If you would like to make a donation for another child's ice cream, we would greatly appreciate it!


Prepaid lunch vouchers will be sent home with your student. Order forms were sent home today. Please return the form to Sweeny by Monday, May 13th.

Online Back to School Registration Coming Soon! Update Your Contact Information!

We are excited to announce that all back to school and new student registration information for the 2019-20 school year will be online through the SISK12 Parent Portal! This means very few papers at the beginning of the busy school year and zero duplication of entering information! However, in order to access what is needed for the new school year you must be able to login to SISK12.


We're hoping to make sure everyone has access to and is comfortable with the Parent Portal prior to the end of this school year so that it is a smooth transition for parents and students into 2019-20. We invite you to take time now to make sure you can access Parent Portal and to update any outdated information listed.

School Supplies

Any school supplies that are not picked up after the last day of school will be held until Friday, May 24th.
