It's hard to believe this is our final newsletter of the year! The year has gone by very quickly. Mrs. Tramble and I have greatly enjoyed our time with your children, and we have learned a lot from them as well. We hope your children have enjoyed kindergarten just as much! We also hope they have learned a lot and that they can recognize the growth that has occurred over the course of the year. Please check out our newsletter for information about the end of the year and our instructional focuses: Download May 20
Please note that the students will be dismissed from school two hours early on Wednesday and Thursday. Thursday is the last day of school and nothing will be brought home from school on the buses this day. Your child will not bring a backpack to school on Thursday. If your child wants to bring his/her lunch from home on the last day of school, he or she should bring disposable containers. Also, there is no homework for the last week of school. Just keep reading!
