Hello Parents:

Well the end of the school year is quickly approaching!  The next couple of weeks will be full of special events, celebrations, and doing a thorough cleaning of our classroom.  We will be ending the year with our butterfly lifecycle study.  The caterpillars have arrived and we will be observing 3 of the 4 stages and then finally releasing them once they have become beautiful butterflies.  Check out the stages and be sure to discuss what the children are learning about the lifecycle.

Our classrooms end of the year schedule is as follows:  

We would love parent volunteers from June 7th-June10th to assist with cleaning all of the many manipulatives and other items that the children have used during the school year.  We must sanitize, organize, and pack-up the entire room.  If you are able to assist it would be greatly appreciated!

“Summer Birthday Celebration” will be Thursday June 10th.  We will all watch a movie, eat a cool treat and I will give out “Birthday Smencils” to the children who have summer birthdays.  

The last day of class will be on June 11th.  This will be our classroom “Picnic and Play Day” at Bixler Park.  All children (both the morning and afternoon classes) will attend this day from 10:30 a.m. until noon.  We will meet at Bixler Park at 10:30 a.m. A parent is required to stay with their child during the picnic.  Other family members (smaller siblings, grandparents, etc.) are welcomed to attend as well. We ask that you pack a sack lunch for you and your family.  We will play, eat, and say our final goodbyes for the school year.  

Report Card Pick-Up will be Monday, June 14th.  Keep an eye out for the sign-up sheet. 

“Parent Pack and Pizza Day” will be on Tuesday, June 15th - this is a day where parents who would like to volunteer to assist with final clean-up/pack up come and assist for a couple of hours and pizza is on me for lunch.  



Thank You,

Ms. Bethanie and Ms. Martinez
