Mrs. Obiedzenski’s Class News Week of 3/3/14 Happy Monday We are in need of a ROOM MOM! Mrs. Bouis has been so incredibly helpful thus far but her family will be moving out of state in a few weeks. If anyone is interested in picking up Room Mom, or being a co-room mom, please let me know. I greatly appreciate you help with this!! Early Release Day on Friday, 3/7 has been changed to a full day o be used as a make-up day. Although we were tracked out, we will still participate in the make-up since Wake County does not want to run buses twice. Track 3 students can be picked up by parents at the Early Release time of 12:20 and be counted present for the full day. Your child is also able to say a school until the 2:40 dismissal time. We are in need of a few supplies! Please help us out by visiting our sign-up page: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/508054EADAC2CA57-supplies Symphony field trip is Thursday, 3/20. Students will need to dress up to attend. Example: boys- khaki pants or dress pants, collar shirt, shoes; girls- dress or dress pants, shoes. Students should not wear sweats, jeans, or sneakers. We will be eating lunch at school as normal so there is no need to pack a bag lunch. See Aquarium field trip permission slip, info sheet, and itinerary in your child’s Monday folder. I will be sending out an email later this week to parents wanting to chaperone regarding transportation, itinerary, etc. Please contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns via email at jobiedzenski@wcpss.net.
