The Findley Carnival: A Minecraft Event is coming
Friday, May 30th 5-8pm!

Order forms will go home with children and the order website will also go live with presale ticket prices next week! Order early and save!

The Carnival is a fantastic end of the year celebration, but the proceeds also go to the PTO for future student enrichment. The raffle and silent auction are the backbones of this success. If you, or anyone you know has the ability to donate items or experiences that can make a difference, please contact us at carnivaldads@gmail.com! Thank you for your support!

Calling all parents! The Findley Carnival: A Minecraft Event is coming Friday, May 30th from 5-8pm! This volunteer run event needs help from parents like you!

This month in the tech lab, 4th and 5th graders began their 3D printing lessons, getting hands-on experience with basic design and printing concepts.

They also tried coding a rhyme using Ozobot programming, combining creativity with technology in a fun and engaging way.

They also practiced their typing skills to improve speed and accuracy.

Our K–2 students had an exciting time as well! They were introduced to coding through fun, age-appropriate activities and also enjoyed exploring how Ozobots work.

It’s been a month full of creativity, discovery, and tech fun for all grades!

We are adding the option to complete a quick form for Change of Go Home and Student Absences for our families to use. We are hoping that this will make life a bit easier for some of you. The links are on the website and if you use your phone they are right there easy to use. Here is the QR Code link for each item.

If you know of a Kindergarten age kiddo (born before 9/1/2020) make sure to remind them to get registered for Kindergarten. Our orientation is May 21st and we would like to make sure everyone that can be registered is.

We are excited to meet our incoming Kindy's and their families. Register Now (Pass this along if you know someone) and see you there!
