Newsletter for the Week of May 15th: *It's ZOO TIME....I am looking for a couple more zoo chaperones on Monday May 22nd.
* For this field trip to the Zoo, they are not allowing us to use zoo passes for the students. The chaperones will be able to use their passes. *it is that time of the year where final tests for the year are coming. The fifth grade teachers work very hard to not have them on the same day however, that may not be the case this time of year. It is a good idea to start studying now.
* All Library books need to be turned in by MONDAY!
*From Kathy Jones about the basketball camp registrations: There was a misprint on the forms about grade level. I need to know what grade students will be in NEXT year (2017-18). Thank you!!
