Weekly update! 3-17-13

Happy St. Patrick's Day!! I hope your day was green!!


Thank you to everyone who donated items for our "Fun in the Sun" basket for the Silent Auction. Our basket was stuffed full with items. Check out the basket at the International Celebration on March 30.

Also, a BIG thank you to everyone who sent items for the Tornado Victims. The drive ended on Friday.

Thank you to all the Dads for coming out to our Donuts for Dad's!! We had a great time and the students sure did love having your there! Thank you again for being apart of our class family. 

Just a reminder that the in house field trip/transportation day money is due on Monday. Thank you to those who turned in the money early. Please let me know if you need another form.

Uniform Reminder: All shoes must be mostly white or black. No colored shoe laces. Fridays: You can wear jeans with a spirit shirt. Our field trip shirt is considered a spirit shirt. You may not wear "nut pass" outfits on Fridays unless you have a Nut Pass. The students who turned in the items for the tornado victims will receive the nut passes soon. All undershirts must be the same color as the uniform shirt. If you have any questions about uniforms, please refer to the KCSMA parent handbook. 

Save the Dates:

Transportation Day: Friday, March 29th. Since we have been learning about the FARM, we are also going to call it FARMER FRIDAY! SO, grab those blue jeans, straw hats, flannel shirts and come to school dressed as a farmer! We are going to eat a picnic lunch outside and then explore all the types of transportation. Students will be buying an ice cream from the ice cream truck.

Saturday, March 30th- International Spring Celebration. This is a HUGE event put on by the PTO. You don't want to miss it!! See y'all there!

Friday, April 5th: Spring Party. This is the Friday before Spring break. A signup will be sent home soon for items needed at the party.
