Dear Sapphire Families,
As we approach the final weeks of the school year, it is incredible to look back at how much we have shared and accomplished together.
This past month has been absolutely bursting with memorable moments. Our youngest learners in Pre-School hosted a beautiful Mother’s Day Tea and are already buzzing with excitement for their upcoming Father’s Day Ice Cream Social. Speaking of sweet treats, our PTA Ice Cream Social brought out a fantastic crowd! We also cheered on our students during the Kindergarten Festival, and everyone loved getting a hands-on look inside a real ambulance during a special community visit.
Creativity was on full display at our school Art Show, where every single student had a piece of artwork proudly showcased. We also welcomed the "Kids on the Block" troupe from the high school, who delivered a wonderful presentation on empathy and kindness. Please take a look at the photo gallery below to see smiles from all of these wonderful events!
Looking ahead, one of our absolute favorite traditions—Field Day—is scheduled for June 5th. We are crossing our fingers for beautiful weather!
As you plan out the end of the month, please keep these important calendar reminders in mind:
Last Week of School (Mon.-Thurs.): Dismissal will be a half-day schedule for students.
-- UPK Dismissal/pickup @ 11:10 AM.
-- K/1 Dismissal @ 11:45 AM

Warmly,
Allison Borriello
