Recycle! Recycle!
Recycle!
Along with making our bodies better we are
making the world a better place by practicing recycling. We will be
recycling:
 | aluminum |
| newspaper |
| plastic |
Make sure that all items are clean. The
students can bring items to the classroom where we will sort and place into
bins. |

Bring Sneakers
On Friday April 19th we will be
cleaning up the field behind the school. Make sure that your child wears
appropriate clothing for a day outside.
We are also going to be eating
lunch outside if weather permits, so sack lunches will need to be brought
that day. Sack lunched can be bought from the cafeteria for $2.75
Reminder: PE days are every
Tuesday and Thursdays so appropriate clothing are needed as usual for those
days. |

Thank you to all of the parents who
volunteered their time at the annual spring festival last month. We couldn't
have done it with out you. |
