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. Their address is 2171 E. Lexington Avenue, Fresno, 93720. 

Students do not need to come to school first on this day. If your child will need a ride from school to the swim party , please let me know, as we will not be organizing formal carpools. Parents, 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.

We are asking that each child please bring $3.00-$5.00 to help with the cost of the food. Please bring the money to class by Wednesday, May 21.

If you would like to bring something the day of the party, we still need:

  • cut-up fruit (watermelon, grapes)
  • veggie platter
  • cookies or brownies (no cake or cupcakes please)
  • ice cream bars
  • Goldfish crackers

Please email (hopevillines@yahoo.com) or text (559) 346-7806 Hope Villines if you can bring any of the above. If you bring food, you do not have to pay the $3.00-$5.00.
