Dear Parents,
Many thanks to Julie Wason (Claire's mom) for putting together our Fitness Week Banner. Check out the photo. It looks fantastic! Thanks so much Ms. Wason!
If you have not done so already, please sign and return your child's report card by tomorrow. As a reminder, another option is to email me to let me know you've seen the report card.
Please note that two important items were sent home this week in your child's homework folder. One is the Spring Picture Day flyer. The other is information regarding the CAASPP State Testing. This testing for grades 3-5 will begin on May 4th at Welby Way. Please make sure you do not plan to pull your child early or have him/her stay home on those days unless it is due to illness.
Happy Spring!
Mrs. McLoud
