Good Morning Families,

Thank you all for another wonderful week! It is hard to believe that May starts tomorrow. Please pay attention to the calendar as there are many family friendly activities during the month of May. We hope to see you at Adams!

This week we are celebrating staff and teachers all week. Feel free to share a note with any staff member that has positively impacted you or your child's life. We are very fortunate at Adams to have such amazing staff!

Have a wonderful week!

Items from our PAC

Parent Advisory Council participation:

In order to continue to offer fun free events throughout the year, we'll need a little help from Adams families next year. We would love to have you join the board (we're fun, I promise!). You don't need any experience; you just have to want to make Adams even more awesome for our students and families.

If a board position sounds like too much to take on right now, we could use your help with some projects next year--social media management, community outreach coordination, outdoor classroom project management, grant writing, restaurant night coordination, and Family Fun night coordination. If any of those things sounds interesting at all, let us know. All are invited to attend our next meeting: May 11 @6:30.

Clothing Needed:

RedHawks are in need of new/gently used clothing for students who have accidents/need a change of clothing while at school.
Here's what is needed:

Pants: sizes 5-14.
Preferably athletic pants, sweats or stretchy leggings.
XL shirts
New underwear sizes 6-14

Deliver any items to Nina in the main office.

Teacher Appreciation:

Adams staff has been working hard all year to help our kids be successful. Let's show them our appreciation by stocking the lounge with all of their favorite things. Please order something off of this wishlist OR purchase it at a store & drop it off at the office for PAC by May 1.

Here are some things they said they love: Diet Coke, Pretzels, Mountain Dew, Popcorn, Dr. Pepper, Cheezits, Lemonade, Snickers, Twix

Birthday grams:

Side note: we won't offer birthday grams next year, so if you'd like to send a bag o' goodies to a student or teacher, here's your chance:

PAC will deliver treats to students and staff to celebrate birthdays! Cost: $5 You can order or donate a birthday gram here. (https://my.cheddarup.com/c/2022-23-birthday-grams?cart=94ace1c1-1f50-4cb4-9ac3-298fee1f5acf%21%2142034918)

We are in field trip season and many of you have generously spent a day with our students as a chaperone. Thank you so much! For those of you looking for other ways to get involved, keep reading!

Track & Field

It's back and happening on May 19th. You can join in the fun by helping us run the various stations. Sign up here!

We need more tutors!

Work with our Kindergartners to build their reading and math skills (2-hour training is provided and required). Or come in once a week to read with our First Graders.

Coke Gives

Turn in codes on box flaps (where you open the box to access the cans) or bottle caps so we can enter them and earn money for Adams!

Do you know someone else who wants to help at Adams? Today is a great day for them to sign up!
