Principal's Update
Greeting Royal Lions,
We are approaching the end of the school year and several things are coming up. You will find the tentative calendar for the remainder of the year below. There will be more information coming regarding the recognition programs in the next few weeks. The dates and time are set, we will let you know if they will be in person or virtual.
Staff Appreciation Week is coming up May 2 - May 6. This is our opportunity to say thank you for everything that they do to positively impact the lives of every child in the building. I would like to ask for your help in making this a week to remember, as we celebrate the best staff ever!!! You can celebrate the staff members that you have identified personally or if you would like to send in items that can be provided as gifts to staff, please make sure you have them labeled.
Some ideas that are always appreciated are:
gifts
snacks
fruit
gift cards
cards
drawings
homemade gifts
flowers
candy
We will have drawings for the staff throughout the week, where the person called will come and get a surprise gift. If you would like to donate a gift or gift card to be a prize for the drawings, please send that item to the front office labeled drawing prize.
Thank you in advance for your support with celebrating our staff!!!
