Fine Arts Night<\/span>
Please save the date for Fine Arts Night on May 15th at 6:30 pm. Attendance is required as part of their music grade. We are excited about the opportunity to showcase our Arts department. Our music directors, Mrs. Schkade and Miss Beumer, have worked with the students all year on music theory, rhythm, and tone. During the evening, each choir will perform under the direction of Mrs. Schkade. Our bands and recorders, directed by Miss Beumer, will also perform. Mrs. Bird\u2019s art class projects will be displayed around the building; families will be invited to an Open House where they can enjoy the art projects done by the students.
Students will arrive at 5:45 pm and meet their teacher in their classroom. After the music performance, students return to their classrooms; parents pick them up.
Students in Kindergarten – 2nd grade are to wear their Sunday best. There will be a cookie reception after the program in the commons.
In addition, we will also have a silent auction with the class art projects. Bidding will be in person on Fine Arts Night, May 15th.
Water Bottles and Snacks<\/span>
<\/span>Please continue to send your student to school with a water bottle and a snack each day. This helps them stay hydrated and have enough energy to keep up their learning throughout the whole school day.
