Cluesletter

OK I am sending home the Cluesletter a little early this week because of all that is going on at school. Tomorrow we have the annual book parade, and our class party. I, also , want to thank you for all that you are doing. I know that the list is long with all the things that we are asking you to do: like the parade, party, drinks, and volunteer time at fall festival, chocolate for the basket, selling Butter Braids, buying Square One art and the list goes on and on. We are feeling it here at school as well. We have had benchmark testing, a puppet show and helicopter this week along with the parade and the party, and all of our classes and assignments. For that reason we are only having the reading and spelling test on Friday. We will try to get back on our regular schedule of time test on Fridays next week. We are getting a little behind schedule, but I do not want for you to worry, I have built than in, I just wasn’t sure when it would start. As I walk around the room and talk with the students, I am surprised by how much we have already accomplished.

As for the opportunities that you have to volunteer and donate here at school, I want to make sure that you know that send home all the opportunities for you. You decide what you want and are willing to do. I see this list four times. I send it home to you and then I see with all three of my children. I know that there is no way that anyone can do it all. Any time you volunteer your time or donate items it is appreciated.

Thank you.
