Culture Day is Friday, March 31st, please let me know if you have any questions.  Food can be prepared from home.  We have one food allergy – peanuts.  Please be sure your dish does not contain any nuts.   Food will need to be brought in on that day around 11:45. We will begin lunch at 12:00.  Then about 12:45/12:50, the students will present about each country.  We will go to the gym after that for a short parade and for grades to present something about one of their countries.  Once this is over we will be done. 

Easter is approaching fast, each child will need to send in at least 12 prefilled eggs. You can start sending these in, I would like all eggs in by April 4th. Our Easter Party will be on April 5th. Please keep an eye out for more information from our Room Moms.


On Thursday, the second graders are having a wax museum.  This is where these students dress up as a famous Americans.  Then when you put money in there cup they will tell you about themselves.  We will go visit the wax museum that afternoon.  For students to be able to have them speak they will need change.  There is no set amount.  Any amount is appreciated.  The money they raise will go to Lisa Brogdon, who is our speech teacher who was recently diagnosed with cancer and just had surgery.  Please send your donations/change in a plastic Ziploc bag.  You can either put your child’s name on the bag or put the bag in the money envelope.

Enrollment forms went home this week.  They are due April 7th.  A form needs to be filled out for every child. You should fill out a form for every child you have.  Please go ahead and fill them out and get them turned in as soon as possible.
