Dear Families,
Spring is in the air and we can’t wait! We have enjoyed our little teaser of warm sunny days last week. As the new season arrives, please be sure to send a water bottle or thermos with your child. They are sweaty little peeps when they come in from being on the blacktop or field. We will finish up Physical Fitness Testing on Wednesday and then the make-ups will begin for those who were absent on any of the testing days.
THANK YOU – The Auction was a wonderful success!! Thank you for all your generous donations. God has richly blessed our school through your efforts.

SPEECHES AND HERITAGE DOLL – Our speeches will start on Monday, March 24th and continue through April 3rd.. The children may dress in costume if they wish and bring a food that represents their country. These suggestions are optional and not a requirement. Please remember to write the final draft of the speech on the paper that I sent home. If you need more, just let me know.
EASTER CELEBRATION – We will have a celebration on Friday, April 11th at 1:20 PM. I will have a sign-up outside our door for the items needed at our party. In addition, each child will bring 12 filled plastic, easter eggs. They can be filled with candy, stickers, erasers or whatever else you choose. Anything goes!!!! These will be hidden outside for an egg hunt at our party!!
