Upcoming Events

Dear Families,

I wanted to give you a “heads up” on upcoming events that will take place from now until the end of the year.

·          The last day to check out books from the library is May 26^th.  The books are due back in the library by June 2^nd .  Please continue to check for overdue books and return them to the library as soon as possible.

·          The Flag Day performance will take place on June 6^th in the gym at 9:30.  Following the performance, we will have our Open House in our classroom. This is a time to come and see our U.S. symbols slideshow, hear us read some of our opinion writing, and enjoy snack with us.  Please remember that due to the amount of people coming that day, we are not inviting siblings.

·          The Book Envelopes will end on June 9^th.  At this time, all books should be returned to the classroom, so that the book carts can be organized and restocked for next year’s class.

·          The children will participate in Field Day on June 7^th.  Be sure your child wears sneakers, hats, and sunscreen on this day.

·          Our class picnic will be on June 15th from 11:45-12:15.  All families are invited to this.  We will be enjoying lunch outside by the library with Mrs. Elrick’s class.  More to come on this…

·          The book swap will be June 16^th.  This is when your child can bring 1-5 gently used first grade appropriate books to school.  We will trade books in the afternoon and your child will have some new books for the summer!  More to come on this…

·          Transition Day will be June 19^th.  This is when your child will take a bus over to Wheelock to meet next year’s teacher.

·          The last day of school is a half day and is on June 20^th.

I hope that this is helpful when planning any future plans in the upcoming weeks!

Mrs. Herring
