Hi everyone!

Sorry it’s taken me so long to post this but I’ve been busy!

Christian James was born via c-section May 10th at 1:16pm. He was 7.14 pounds and 20.5 inches long. He is doing great and such a good baby. His big sister loves him and we’re adjusting pretty well 🙂

I hope all of you are doing well. I plan to visit in June, I miss my kiddos!

*Field Day (Tuesday, June 11th)

Field day is run outside by Mr. Borg. Schedules will be announced the week before. He may be in search of parent volunteers to help.

*Detroit Zoo Field Trip (Weds, June 12th)

Once at the zoo we will meet as a group by the ticket booths. It is important to know that we have to enter as a group!!! If you are significantly later than the rest of us they reserve the right to make you pay full price because they stop counting. I would have all stops done before school so that we can all arrive at the same time. The zoo has dining if you do not want to pack lunches. They have Arctic Café, Buddy’s pizza, and American Coney Island.

*Parents Picnic Lunch (Thursday, June 13th)

At 11 am we will go to the courtyard for lunch. We invite the parents to bring a dish to pass and join us for lunch from 11-11:45 a.m. Parents can bring blankets and we will have a picnic style lunch with preschool, kindergarten, and first grades.  Please remember to bring your own drink.

*Last Day of  School (Friday, June 14th)

The last day is a half day. Your child must be picked up no later than 11:45.  

Please have your child bring their backpack to school the last week since there will be lots of stuff coming home 🙂

I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything these last two weeks and this entire year. It is truly appreciated. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of students or parents. I will miss all of you. Thank you for a wonderful year. It has been a pleasure teaching your child. They are in good hands with the sub, she is eager to take over for the last month. I promised the class I will come visit before the school year is over. I hope everyone has an amazing summer if  I don’t see you. Thanks again!

Love,

Mrs. Schneider 🙂

Good afternoon,

This week May 6th – 10th:

• My last day is Wednesday. Mrs. Rida starts as the long term sub on Thursday until the end of the school year.
• A quick heads up, Spring NWEA starts next week. Our class will be testing the morning of May 16th and 23rd. As always, please make sure your child is in school those days well rested and has eaten a healthy breakfast. Please discuss with them the importance of test taking especially at the end of the school year.
• Next Wednesday May 15th is a late start. School starts at 9:35 am.
• There is no school on May 24th and 27th for Memorial Day.

Have a great week!

If you were wondering what kind of school supplies we are in need of…..we are low on glue sticks, disinfectant wipes,  and we’re on our last box of kleenex. Thanks!!

Thank you so much for the amazing baby shower yesterday! Everyone was so thoughtful and supportive. Your generosity was truly unexpected and greatly appreciated. Baby boy feels showered with love and my heart is full. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of students or parents. You guys are the best! Thanks again for everything!

Love,

Mrs. Schneider <3

The zoo trip money and permission slips were due today. If your child will not be attending, please send me a quick email and let me know.

Ramadan starts next week. If your child will be fasting, please let me know so I can send home a form that has to be filled out. Any child that fasts during the school day will need the form completed by a parent in order to participate.

Tomorrow is the Color Run. It may be muddy so dress accordingly. Hopefully we won’t have to cancel due to weather, but we will let you know. All students can be picked up from the playground area tomorrow after school since they will not be allowed back in the building.
