Notes

Ø  Report Cards will be sent home on Friday, April 1!

Ø  If you are chaperoning the Field Trip, please send the $20.00, to school as soon as possible, if you haven’t done so already.

Ø  Our Field Trip will be next Wednesday, April 6.  Your child will need a lunch packed in a disposable bag.  We won’t carry anything back to the bus with us.  We will see the 4D show, make a candy bar and take a ride on the Chocolate World Tour!  Students should wear their tye-dye shirt that PTO provided, sneakers and dress code appropriate bottoms.

Ø  Thanks to everyone who has sent items or money for the Chinese Auction “Peanuts” Themed Basket.  I would like to have that put together by April 8, so if you haven’t sent anything and are planning to, please do so ASAP.  Even if it’s a few dollars, I was able to find some nice inexpensive items online.  THANKS AGAIN!!
