Parents,
I had to make the tough decision to opt out of a rematch game of Kickpin with Mrs. Langford's class.  This call was meant to teach the students how to lose gracefully.  They are all winners in my eyes!
Tomorrow we will leave by 8:45 for our annual middle school field trip. Your child will visit the middle school that they will be attending next year.  Please encourage them to listen and pay attention to how the school runs on a typical day. 
I sent home end of the year party letters.  Each child has a specific thing to bring in. Those who are supposed to bring in candy bars, if you could mix them up, that would be great.  Whatever is not used, I will send back home. 
After lunch tomorrow, we will have our last AR party of the year.  We had 19 students to make their goal!  That is a record for the school year! So very proud.
Field day is this Friday. I need one large cooler if you have one available.  I do have one at my house but it is small and old and I would hate to have to buy another one just for one day.  There will also be Kona Ice.  This is not included in the field day expenses.  So, please send money 2-5 dollars for this.  Thanks and have a great evening.
