Hello parents. I am writing with a few reminders for next week. Tuesday evening is the Portfolio Conference time for the purple class from 6:30-7:30 pm. Please plan to bring your child along as he/she will be conducting this conference to show you all of the growth that has occured this year and the projects we have been working on. Thursday evening is the white class's Portfolio Conference time again from 6:30-7:30 pm. Please plan to come at some point during this hour to see your child's portfolio of growth. You can also visit the Scholastic Book Fair.
Miss Beard's last day will be Thursday, April 23. Of course for the purple class, this will be Wednesday. I had planned to have a big celebration to say "thank you" and "good bye", but with all of the special events going on lately time has simply gotten away from me. Please ask your child to make a card or write a little note to Miss Beard to give to her at some point throughout the week. She has been an amazing student teacher and truly cares about each child in the class. I will present Miss Beard with a gift card to A+ Teaching Supply on Thursday. If you would like to donate, please send that in to me before Tuesday. Thank you for helping to make this a special farewell for Miss Beard.
As our school year draws to an end, I would encourage you to begin putting together a time capsule of items you have collected throughout the school year to give to your child during his senior year of high school. Kindergarten is a special year, and it's so easy to forget the many things that have happened. If I can be of assistance, please let me know.
Thank you for making this such a positive and fantastic school year. I look forward to celebrating more with you in June!
