Newsletter Week of April 8

 April Showers Bring May Flowers

Note from the Teacher

Another long but productive week!
The students have been working hard on their poetry books and look forward finishing them soon. Please remember to send in colored plastic eggs and candy to fill them. The fifth graders are anxious to hide the eggs for their bookbuddies. Lastly, don't forget our field trip to Tryon Palace is this Tuesday.
Just a few reminders:

• Be on time! We will leave school by 8:15am.
