Book Club for 1st and 2nd Graders

Dr. Debelak and Mrs. Stauder are offering a book club for 1st and 2nd graders. We will be reading The Miniature World of Marvin and James by Elise Broach. The Miniature World of Marvin and James is the first book in a series which hopefully the students will enjoy all summer! We will meet during lunch and recess on May 21st to discuss the book and do an activity. Please fill RSVP here if your child will be participating. It is your responsibility to acquire the book which is available at the public library or most booksellers. Please email Dr. Debelak @ debelaka@sycamoreschools.org

with any questions.

LUNCH ACCOUNTS

Attention parents! The end of the year is quickly approaching, and the Sycamore Child Nutrition Department is working hard to collect the debt on student's accounts before we are out for the summer. This year we are being generous and allowing students to charge at the k-6 buildings through the end of the year, but with that being said we need your help paying off overdue account balances. Please be diligent about checking to see if your child owes money. He/she can check at lunch, or you can get on your parent portal account and find the account balance there. You can also call the Child Nutrition office, and we can help you with any questions you might have. Any debt accrued during the 2017/18 school year WILL roll over to the

2018/19 year.

Thanks for your cooperation!
