I hope everyone enjoys your Mother’s Day! The students all worked hard on writing poetry for Mom and you should all have received you sunflower. They grow to be 12 feet tall so plan accordingly when planting them.
Cultural Play – Each year our school puts on a big cultural night at the end of the year. This year we are going to be studying Ancient Inca, Mayan and Aztec people. Students will be memorizing lines, and performing on stage. We are hoping to 100% attendance and are counting on everyone to do their part in the performance. The students and parents have always enjoyed these nights. We have the performance and then share food together. Please let me know as soon as possible if your student will be unable to attend for some reason and I will plan accordingly with the line assignments. The date of our performance is June 9th in the evening. I will post the exact times in the near future. Within the next few weeks I will be sending information about costumes and lines.
