~~UPDATE!  We’ve already reached our $750 goal, but please continue to collect donations through May 4th!  The PTA will sponsor a pizza party for the 2nd and 3rd place classrooms, while the winning class will receive a lunch from the Olive Garden.  Thank you for your generosity,
Lindbergh Flyers!~~

**During Thursday’s special lunch, we are looking for two parents to cover each class while teachers and staff enjoy their lunch.  You will arrive 15 minutes prior to the students’ lunch hour, check in to our office and get a visitor sticker.  Parents can head to the cafeteria, find the classroom they are covering and remain ~ 1 hour.  Please remember that if we have outdoor recess you will be outside keeping an eye on the kids during this time, making sure they are safe.  If weather does not permit, parents would be in the classroom.

Sign up here to cover staff during Thursday’s lunch: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090e4caaa72da4fd0-teacher2

Any questions, please let me know. Thanks for your help!
