Happy Friday!

It was SO wonderful to see parents and guardians at Parent Teacher Conferences. If you didn't get a chance to stop by the Book Fair you can still order online.

Short week and short bulletin! Aspire group email is still not working correctly. We are able to email parents from our OneCall system though all emails state they are from Lalani, our AMAZING lead secretary :)

Please keep up on your emails and social media if possible as these are the first methods of communication with parents.

Stay safe and healthy and enjoy the weekend!

Mark you calendars for another fun-filled skate night at Classic Fun Center in Layton.

Friday, April 22 - 5:00 - 8:00 pm

Beginning March 15, students can turn in 10 Watch Me Learn tickets to have their name added to the FREE 10 Token Pass! Only one 10 Token Pass will be available for students. Students will pick up their Token Pass at the Bridge table at the rink. The tokens are used on the arcade games. Skating is FREE (bring your own skates or scooters) or you can pay to upgrade to a pass that includes ALL of the activities including Laser Tag, Bouncing, and Pirate's Cove.

We still have a need for paper towels and boxes of tissue. If you have any you would like to donate please drop the items off at the office.

We are also in need of school pants sizes 7-10 for our closet. We lend lots of clothes out for accidents (potty, mud, split milk, torn pants) and for students who do not wear dress code appropriate clothing.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS - We are hosting a fun filled "Math in May" family night on May 11, 6:00 - 7:30 pm. We will serve FREE dinner to all who attend! Families will have multiple stations to visit to play math games - tables filled with information regarding the math curriculum used at Bridge - and an estimation station in the foyer for a chance to win prizes by guessing how many items are in a jar. Each time a student visits a station and completes an activity they will earn a ticket for a prize drawing. Parents and guardians who attend will also receive tickets for an adult prize drawing.

PLEASE excuse your child's absence by:

• Calling our attendance line (801)499-5180
