Summer Practice

Here are some ways to avoid the summer slide!! All of these were in your child's folder sent home on the last day of school.

Keep practicing all of the first grade skills so you're ready for second grade in the fall!

Or open a PDF here if you need another copy!

Field Day volunteers needed!

Hi folks:

Since Field Day has been rescheduled for next Monday, June 22, we’ve created a brand new sign up form. Please put your name down if you can help, even if you signed up for the original date and can still volunteer.

K-2 kids will participate in the morning from 8:45-11:00 and grades 3 & 4 will be11:45-2:00. All kids will have a picnic lunch from 11-11:45. We need parents to cover the lunch hour so we’ve adjusted shifts slightly. All shifts are 1.5 hours but come for longer if you can!

Please sign up here.

Thank you!
