Updates 4/18-4/22

Happy Sunday, everyone! What a beautiful weekend we are enjoying! I hope you received my email Friday afternoon about the wonderful FREE reading opportunity Pearson Education is funding. If not, please check your email and take a look. It benefits your child as well as our school.

We have a busy week coming up next week! Wednesday is an early dismissal day, so those parents who pick up at school or at the bus stop will need to arrive one hour earlier. Also, there is no school on Friday of this week or Monday of next week! Thursday of this week, (4/21), we will be having our egg hunt and craft day. If you haven't already, please send in your CLEANED OUT gallon milk or water jug. Please don't send it in without cleaning it out first. STINKY! STINKY! Also your child will need to bring in 6 plastic eggs filled with NON-MELTING candy. Please write your child's first and last name in permanent black marker on the eggs.

We welcomed a new friend to our class last week. His name is Logan and he comes to us from the Tampa area. We are so excited to have him and he fits in perfectly with our class!!

Thank you so much for your patience last week with our wacky schedule. It made for a crazy week and by Friday, everyone was ready for the weekend! It was a difficult week, but we survived it and are better because of it.

Report cards went home on Friday. I hope you enjoy those wonderful incentive coupons in the envelopes. These are courtesy of Emily's parents. They are very generous to provide them to us every nine weeks. Please make sure to sign the slip at the bottom of the report card and return it WITH the yellow envelope. With the budget being what it is, we like to recycle as much as we can.

Have a fabulous week and, as always, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at mullerl1@duvalschools.org. The secret word for this week is something we learn about in our reading story this week: friendship.
