We had fun surprising Mrs. Bonds for her birthday. The entire school sang to her while Mrs. Wickstrom accompanied on the ukulele!

We are so grateful to Mrs. Siegfried and Mrs. Ensley for all they do each day to keep our students fed! Thank you!

If you are spring cleaning and have the following, the Health Office would love donations!

We could use some gently used pants and shirts for boys and girls in sizes 4/5 and 6/7. Socks for girls in all sizes are needed as well.

Thank you!

Please encourage your students to walk by the Lost and Found to see if anything there belongs to them. Lots of jackets and water bottles get left behind. We will have all items placed on tables for you to look through. Items remaining at the end of the year will be donated.

Have an amazing summer Maple Grove Grizzlies! Thank you for the privilege of being able to teach the tool box tools. Practice makes perfect so the saying goes. I hope all of you will use the tools over the summer. Parents here are the links to videos on youtube where I discuss the tools. This will help you to understand how they are used and can be a great reminder for your kids. Again enjoy the summer and I will see most of you in the fall!! Sincerely, Mrs. Gandara
