Week 39


 Our Shakespeare show was a tremendous success! Everyone had a ball and left with only the fondest memories of the whole experience. Thank you all for your encouragement and enthusiasm throughout this. We want to thank families who also volunteered their time and artistic talents to make this Midsummer Night's Dream a most beautiful one! The Fuquas, Thompsons, Raos, Wattenbargers, Fogels, Pinciottis, Lowerys, Faloticos, Altman-Shulmans, Meehans, Loebs, Laras, Lius and Aronovs have been extremely supportive and were available to help at a moments notice. There were also some beautiful flowers presented to me. I am so grateful!


Here's what is happening next week:
  • We are beginning to wind down the year. Please look through your homes and return any books that were borrowed from the class library. Students are beginning to bring home their supplies and notebooks. Please make sure your child takes out the materials from the bookbag before returning to school each day.
  • On Wednesday, Sophie's mom will be here to make tie dye t-shirts with us! This is an extremely generous treat! Sophie will be leaving our community next year as her family makes a new home upstate. We want to wish them all the best!
  • Alex's mom will also be here, during the week, to harvest the mint from the community garden. She will show us how to churn sorbet from this. Aren't we the luckiest class?!
  • Thursday will be our school field day. Please make sure your child is dressed for an active day and brings his/ her own lunch. Apply sunscreen and bug repellent before coming to school. Bring sunscreen to reapply throughout the day. Encourage your child to wear a hat and athletic shoes.
Have an amazing weekend!
