A Message from the Principal
Dear Families,
Next week we head into June and our last 14 days of school! As I’ve mentioned previously, we have so much to look forward to these last few weeks, and we can’t wait to see your child at school daily. I highly encourage you to read this week’s newsletter closely and mark details for the next few weeks on your calendar. There are three family events I want to highlight in the next two weeks:
PTA BINGO Night - tomorrow! Join us in the gym at 6pm for a fun evening of BINGO. You can get 7 BINGO plays for $1, there is an amazing silent auction, and local favorite food truck Las Garnachas will be here with a menu that has something for everyone. We hope to see your whole family!
Art Walk - Tuesday, June 4th: Our students have worked hard this year to create incredible art with Mrs. Franck. Each child will have a poster displaying some of their artwork from throughout the year - we hope you can join us from 6-7pm to celebrate all of our students!
Guitar Club Recital - Tuesday, June 11th: This year our music teacher, Mr. Blair, has been running an after-school guitar club. The students are excited to show off their learning and skills during a recital at 6:30pm.
In addition to all of the above, don’t miss:
We look forward to seeing you at school in June!
“Participate with passion, and you’ll inspire others to do the same.”

Library Surplus Sale is Coming......
SURPLUS Sale is coming June 10th and will be all day during school hours 9am-3pm, all surplus books will be .25 cents each, please note I will not have change available.
The end of the year is fast approaching, the students' last day for normal check out will be next week and then all library books will be due back by June 13th. I have decided to give the classes a challenge, the 1st 3-4 classes that have all of their library books turned in will earn themselves a snow cone party the last week of school. As a reminder if you ordered a yearbook for your student they must have all library books returned and/or any library fines taken care of in order to receive their yearbook.
Makerspace will also be winding down as of June 14th, it has been absolutely amazing to see the creations the students have made this year and has given me loads of ideas to put into play for the next school year.
Happy Reading and Creating,
Mrs. Swalwell
