Feeling Spirited for Spirit Week!
Variety Show Costumes!
Several students have not brought white shirts in to graffiti paint for the Variety Show. We will be doing the art in class tomorrow. If you know you will not be able to send a clean white t-shirt in for your child please e-mail me and CC Lisa Ronco tonight so that we can make sure there are enough.
Other Variety Show Costume Details:
The 4th Grade is excited about their "Stay Tuned" variety show song-the theme from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air! Student will wear their Graffiti t-shirts made in class with jeans (any color), sneakers and a colorful solid or multi-color ball cap for a 1990's Fresh Prince look (appropriate logos ok). Students will wear their costume for a full school day (May 27). Families are responsible for purchasing their own hats. (SEE IMAGES BELOW)
Each student needs to leave his or her costume in the 4th Grade classroom in a bag with their name on it by Wednesday, May 25th for a costume check. Bringing the costume on time is a huge support to the success of the show and greatly helps reduces everyone's stress :-) Also....late costumes may impact your student's Music participation grade. Please contact Mrs Ronco lronco531@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Thank you, Anne Marie Oldham

STAR Renassiance Testing is taking place this week and next. Please make sure your child is rested and has a healthy breakfast before school each day.
Star of the Week Presentations- there are several students who have not presented their star of the week presentations. Earlier this week I assigned them a new date if they missed their original one. Talk to them about preparing for this, we only have a few weeks of school left! (Directions for the presentation are on my website under the Star of the Week tab).
