The PTA has just sent out the link for new Spirit Wear. I already placed my order and can’t wait to see the new shirts! I am sending you the link in case you missed it!

Go Penguins! Spirit Wear

So, the best laid plans sometimes fall through! Our field trip to the Michigan Science Center was VERY unexpectedly cancelled today (I am working on rescheduling and will let you know immediately when we have a date).

Thanks to the quick thinking and flexibility of the wonderful office staff here at DuVall, Mr. Attee, and the fabulous parent chaperones who attended today, we made a fast call and were able to take the kids bowling at Ford Lanes.

Here are some pictures from our adventure. The kids had a lot of fun and truly impressed me with their bowling skills – there were so many spares and strikes!

So I feel the lesson we all learned today is that when life gives you lemons, make lemonade!

This Friday we are going to the Michigan Science Center in Detroit across from the DIA. It will be an exciting day of learning and exploring!

If you have signed and paid to be a chaperone, then meet us in the lobby at 9:00 on Friday morning. I will have your group assignments and schedule for you at that time. Thank you for supporting our adventure!

Everyone needs a BAG LUNCH!!!!!

If your child sent in a permission slip, then today begins our 4th grade STEM club meetings. We will be engineering solutions to some fun problems. We end promptly at 4:30 so please be at the gym lobby doors at that time.

Thank you!
