We Are One: Growing in Christ
YEAR END SWIM PARTY:
THANK YOU to the Triplitt family for hosting the year-end swim party on Friday, May 23, from 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Our room mom, Mrs. Villines, will organize the food and drinks. PLEASE LET HER KNOW IF YOU’RE WILLING TO HELP.
Students do not need to come to school first on that day. If you will need a ride from school, please let me know, as we will not be organizing formal carpools. You will also need to pick up your child after the party is over, or make arrangements for them to get home. We will not be going back to People’s Campus. Again, if you need help with this, just let me know.
