Happy May!

Monday = D Tuesday = A Wednesday = B Thursday = C Friday = D

Happy May Monday! It seems too chilly to be welcoming May. We have postponed our "Flower Day" one more day in order to avoid tonight's predicted frost (really?!?!). If you forgot to send a flower to school today for your child to plant in the first grade flower bed, you are in luck! You have an extra day to grab an annual and send it to school for your first grader to plant. I am planning on taking the kids out tomorrow to plant our flowers and get our first grade flower bed looking fabulous!

I completely forgot to send the May Lunch Calendar home today. I am SO sorry. I will be sure to send it tomorrow. Looking ahead to tomorrow's lunch choices, it looks like choice "A" is Chicken Nuggets, choice "B" is BBQ Chicken Leg and choice "C" is PB&J. Thank you for your understanding!

Your child is bringing home some important things in their backpack today. First, they are bringing their "Play Hospital" t-shirt home. This is the shirt they will need to wear on Wednesday's field trip. I am sending it home early in case you may want to wash it in advance. We were not given any choices on sizes, so if the shirts are huge, I apologize. They are a gift from Olathe Medical Center and I wasn't able to request specific sizes. When we are done with the field trip, maybe it will make a nice night shirt! Please be sure your child come dressed in their Play Hospital t-shirt on Wednesday May 4th. They will also need a sack lunch with a disposable sack lunch and NON-breakable drink.

Have you signed up for Family Access? USD 231 is establishing an on-line enrollment process for the 2011-2012 school year. If you have not already signed up for a Family Access password allowing you to enroll on-line, please stop by our office between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM.

We have so many end-of-the-year things going on this month. Your child is bringing home a May calendar that they created with our special days labeled. Please have them tell you about all of the activities that they have marked on their calendar. We are sure to be busy in the upcoming weeks.

As always, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions or need anything. The end of the year will be here in a blink. Be sure to love on your child a little more for being so wonderful and working so hard.
