May 8, 2015

Dear Parents,

What a busy and fun week we have had! I cannot say THANK YOU enough for all of the sweet cards, flowers, treats, gifts, and Panera Bread for lunch today from you and your children! I have truly enjoyed teaching each and every one of them this year. It is amazing to look back and see the growth and progress that they have made since August! We had a fabulous time at our field trip to the Fernbank on Wednesday and STEAM day today! Next week we have Field Day on Tuesday and yearbook signing on Thursday.

If students purchased a yearbook, then they are coming home with them today. They are not to come back to school until next Thursday, May 14^th. If your child did not purchase a yearbook, then they will be given a book to get signed next Thursday.

If your child returned a Six Flags Reading log, then their Six Flags ticket is in their Friday folder today.

We will be having our end of the year party on Tuesday, May 19^th at 1:45.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY on Sunday!! I hope that you enjoy your special day J
