Important Reminders

Race

Field Day is tomorrow! Remember to wear your class t-shirt, comfortable clothes for the warm weather, and tennis shoes (no sandles!).

Thursday morning is a Chick-Fillet sale again...$2.50 will get you a yummy Chicken_biscuits chicken bisbuit - come early before the rush and sell-out!

Cap

HAT DAY!  Want to wear a hat on Friday and support Relay for Life?  Bring $1.00 for a great cause and wear your hat in school!  Sorry, no hats if you do not donate.

VERY, VERY, VERY IMPORTANT!

Please remember to return the large, manilla envelope with three stamps. These will be used for sending the final report cards and other important papers home at the end of the school year.  All library books or payment for lost books, lunch fees, and After School Program fees must be paid before the report card will be mailed out.  If not stamps are provided, the report cards will be placed in the front office for you to come pick up during the summer break. 

Book_flying

The children have really enjoyed taking home and reading the little Sunshine Books this year.  However, it seems that several books sprouted wings and dissappeared.  If you have lost books, please make every effort to find those books and return them - we use them each year and if our supply dwindles, it unfairly takes an important part of our reading resources.  If you should find them during the summer, please drop them off at the front office with my name on them.  Thanks!

Illness

Sick

Parents, please remember that our policy for illness is for your child to be fever-free for 24 hours before sending the child back...that means if they have a fever in the evening before they go to bed, they are not fever-free until the next evening.  I know that school attendance is very important, however, when your child is sick, a fever is one sign of the illness being contagious.  Please be considerate of other children and adults, and help keep the germs at a minimum by keeping a sick child home.  I have just finished a full 7 days of the flu (fevers of 101-102, chills, sweats, coughing, congestion and all-out misery!) and one of the reasons I stayed out so long (besides still having a 101 fever last night) is that I didn't want to pass this scourge to anyone else!  Also, please remember to send a written note expressing that your child was ill so we can mark the absence "excused."  Thanks for helping us try to keep our little ones well.
