April 2024
April showers bring May flowers!
Well, for the amount of rain we have had lately, I'm thinking the flowers should be plentiful!!
If you recall, I mentioned in the beginning of the year that you would be surprised at how quickly the year would pass. We are in the home stretch, as they say, of the end of this 23-24 school year. Wow!
However, there is still plenty to look forward to. Our PTA continues to work tirelessly, planning events for our students to enjoy. Our parents are amazing! Thank you for always stepping in to help, volunteer, and support us!
When we return to school on the 8th, there will be an eclipse taking place. Never a dull moment! Attached is the letter from the Assistant Superintendent, Mr. Zylinski. Our kindergarten students are of an age where they can wear the glasses provided and participate in certain activities. Our preschool students are young, so their activities will be a bit different. However, we encourage our families to check out the links included in the letter regarding the event.
This time of year also brings about thoughts of what is to come. Please understand, teacher requests can not be honored. There are many variables that are considered when creating student placements. We appreciate your understanding and support.
Let's hope for less rain and more sun so the flowers are plentiful!
Go Lions!
Mrs. Donohue
