Week of May 27th

 Thank you everyone who helped to make our Pre-K Fun Week such an amazing success! And thank you God for the beautiful weather on most of our days were our activities were necessary to hold outside!

 The next two weeks will be focusing on preparing for our Moving Up Day. We will be going to the STS APR to practice on the stage as much as our schedule allows. If you are late to school and need to find us there is a great chance that we are in STS APR.

Please remember our last day of Pre-K is 6/6. 

Moving Up Day is 6/7 at 1:00pm in th STS APR. 

- Please bring the children to the Learning Center (our classroom) between 12:15 and 12:45 pm. 

- Your child will not need any jacket or back pack/bag.

- Children should be dressed UP for this special day. Do not over dress as it gets very hot on stage. Girls should wear shorts or leggings under their dress/skirt. Safe shoes for dancing and walking on stage are a must!

-We will begin at 1:00 and end around 2:00. There is a show and small reception.

- Fourth Grade Buddies and STS siblings will be invited down by Ms. Hopkins.

- If you have an older sibling, please sign them out of school when you enter the building. They will join you for the Moving Up Ceremony and will remain with you till the end. They do not need to return to class and you can all leave school as a family (no carline-YAY). 

- There is a bathroom in the nurse's office and in Mr. Dunnigan's office. Please DO NOT USE THE STUDENT BATHROOMS during school hours. 

- Please be on the lookout for a Sign Up from our room moms to help with our reception.
