We had lots of fun at Field Day on Wednesday! A GIANT thank you goes out to our P.E. teacher, Mrs. Tyler, for organizing this very special event. Additional “thank yous” go out to the many parent volunteers who assisted with set-up, supervision and clean-up.

I hope you’ve had a chance to check out the Summer Learning Totes that were sent home on Tuesday. These collections of books were differentiated for each grade level and they include a non-fiction text, a dual language text, a math-focused text, and a text focused on health and well-being. In addition, you will find a list of fun math activities and a reading log. All students who complete and return their reading log at the start of next school year will receive a new book!
