We made it through the second day of state testing- YAY! We hope the Babes lunch filled your bellies. One more test day. We will feed all of you some sandwiches from Market Street on Tuesday. Thank you to Tara for making lunches happen for everyone. If there is one great thing state testing brings us...is catered lunches-YUM! Thank you to the entire staff for the efforts you pour into all of our learners to make sure they are prepared for the next grade level every year!

We will host Kindergarten Round Up on Thursday night. If you would like to meet our newest Spurs and help at the event, please reach out to Taylor. We will take all the help we can get! Thank you, Kindergarten team and those that have already volunteered your time!
We are so excited to welcome new FamiLEEs and younger siblings of our current FamiLEEs to our annual Kindergarten Round Up May 1 at 5:30pm. Please plan to join us out back on the playground for some community building and delicious snacks for purchase. PTO will be there to help you order school supplies and make sure you get connected to our amazing FamiLEE. We will see you there!
AUTHOR VISIT ON MAY 2
We will follow the schedule below for our author visit and it is a DAY 2. This means we will have to ask for some flexibility on this day. If your author visit is during your conference time, the specials designer will go to the author visit in your place. Green Lunch and Red Recess are at different times. Please share with 5th grade parents in Green and Red that lunch schedules are different this day. It causes stress when parents don't realize when lunch schedules are different. Thanks, Holly, for scheduling this fantastic guest for our Spurs.
- 8-8:50- K-2 cafe
- 9-9:50 3-4 cafe
- 10:55-11:45 5th grade flex space
