Dear Parents and Guardians
May 13, 2015
The days are getting longer and we only have six weeks left in the school year. There are many exciting
activities between now and the end of the school year so please remember to ask your son or daughter
for information that is being sent home.
We had a school assembly with Ann Glover to learn about using strings to tell stories. Students were
given a string and taught about string safety, string cleanliness and how to use the string.
Our literacy groups will finish at the end of May and students will return to their regular classrooms for
June. Staff will Benchmark all students during the first two weeks of June so that we can see their
growth throughout the year.
