Tisch's Tidbits
Kleenex
Thank you for sending in Kleenex! We went through the boxes pretty quickly and are completely out again. :) If you have one at home, we would appreciate it. Allergies are hitting hard!
Miss Tamburini
Miss Tamburini's official final day with us will be May 9. She will actually be my guest teacher on May 10 and May 14 as I will be absent these two days.Thank you for your generosity for her end of the year gifts! If you would still like to donate, please send in your donation tomorrow as I will purchase everything after school. We will be having a pizza lunch in the classroom on Thursday. I will have the pizza delivered. I will also have juice boxes and a dessert. Your child may bring a peanut/tree nut free side (fruit, veggie, crackers, etc.) if they would like to add to their own personal lunch that day.
End of the Year Parent Letter
I will be sending home an empty envelope with my name on it. I would love it if you wrote a letter to your child reflecting on their elementary experience.On the last day of school, I am going to give these letters to your child. I envision it being like the tv show Survivor where the participants get a letter from home and they sob reflecting on how much they love the person the letter is from. :) If you could send them to school in the addressed envelope by Friday, May 24th that would be wonderful. Thank you in advance for helping to make their last day at Union so special!
Student Council Note
Hello Union!
Your teachers have made our school year great! So, to celebrate them, we are adding a little something extra to Teacher Appreciation Week. We are celebrating these special teachers by selling carnations from Monday, May 6th to Wednesday, May 8th. To purchase a flower, it will cost $1.00. If you donate more, the rest will go to ZEF (Zionsville Education Foundation). To purchase a flower, see the flyer coming home with your child on Friday. Thank you for appreciating our Union staff. We love our teachers!
