the last day party

On the last day of school we will celebrate our accomplishment of the year with a party in the afternoon.  Feel free to send in a snack for your child to share with their peers.  If it is a hot day, we will have a water fight so your child can also bring accessories for that.

the primary field trip

On June 21st, we will be going to Rouge Valley Conservation Area for an Eco-Adventure.  Please return your permission forms as soon as possible.  Even if your child is unable to attend the trip, we need the form with the no section filled out.

Miss D'Heureux has planned this wonderful trip and I look forward to a fun day.

so busy

These last few weeks of school are filled with disruptions, fun disruptions but disruptions none the less.  This morning, Mr. Pate and I will be out of the class for the Welcome to Kindergarten event in the library.  Then we will bring our students to room 9 to allow my incoming JKs and their families to observe a snapshot of our kindergarten day.  At lunch today, your child may be participating in the graduation committee fundraising BBQ lunch.  This afternoon, the whole school will gather for our annual Panoramic photo.  All that and I haven't even mentioned health, music, reading assessments, writing, partnering with Miss Parton and math folders.  What a day!!

fyi

You may have noticed that room 10 is packed up and I know some of you are wondering what is going on.  I will be teaching kindergarten in room 9 next year and my current juniors will be coming with me for the 2012/2013 school year.  Then in the 2013/2014 school year, the students from room 9 will be moved to room 10 and assuming Mr. Vlahos assigns me to kindergarten for that school year, I will move back into room 10 with the children.  I just wanted to be sure that this information was being shared accurately.

Have a great day,
Miss Mynes
