Announcements:

• Our field day has been changed to Tuesday, May 22nd. Please change this on the calendar in your child's folder.
• May 24th is last the day of school :)
• Please do not allow your child to bring toys to school. They seem to have become an issue the past few weeks. I don't mind if they bring balls or jump ropes, but let's limit it to items like that. Thanks in advance, for your help with this.
