Simons' News
from Mrs. Simons
How do we have only 9 1/2 days left??? !!
We have so much left to do this year. We have one last BIG end of the year math test on next Thursday. Please let me know if your student will nor be here that day so we can give it to them earlier.
Thank you so much for jumping on all the sign up geniuses coming out asking for volunteers. Field Day info hopefully will be in my hands today so I can share that info. I have assigned you a color in your DOJO messages. Thank you to those who have volunteered for the day we so appreciate it and couldn't do it without you.
A few reminders-
- Please send in a chapter book each day. We have closed the class library for inventory and packing up.
- The school library is officially closed and we need ALL checked out material paid for OR returned.
- Yellow folders will be coming home this Monday AND CAN ALL STAY at home. We will send grade papers home daily for the rest of the year.
- Please check DOJO daily as I will send reminders as I get them.
Carpool- All call has been called by 3:30 each day. Please be in line by 3:10 each day. Thank you so much you have been really helping out with this. Students will be taken to emergency afterschool care after the last car is done. They will charge you a $1 a minute so please make sure to be here by 3:20 each day.
PLEASE NOTE CARPOOL WILL BE QUICKER FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR- so many activities and events.
