Dear Family,
I hope you enjoyed your weekend. This is our last week with our students. We have several things to get done. Our awards ceremony is Tuesday at 1:30pm. I will get the last of the awards to Mrs. Blair to finish Monday.
Your rooms need to be packed and ready to go by COB Tuesday May 28. Take down your posters and bulletin boards in your room. I will say it again, please minimize!!! The closet in room I can hold any extra supplies you still have (Paper towels, pencils, crayons, etc.). Take home your personal items!!! We only have so much room in the Conex. I have not been out there to see how much room is left if any at all.
All computer carts and electronics will be stored in the library over the summer. PLEASE leave shelf space open for BCYC in your room.
