Week of March 28

Hello parents!
Happy Easter to all of you!

I don't have a lot of new information for you this week.  We will be continuing with a lot of the same things we were working on last week.  Here are just a few reminders:

Field Trips

• April 7th - 9:20 am to 1:30 pm - World Bird Sanctuary 
• Bring a sack lunch and good outside walking shoes.  We will be exploring the woods a bit so be prepared for weather.  
• I can still take 1 more parent if anyone wants to join us.  $8 admission (If you can't come, we will be fine for this field trip.  We really need more help with the Amazing Race one in May.)
• May 23rd - times to be announced but plan on most of the day - Forest Park Amazing Race
• Bring a sack lunch and good running around clothes if you are a parent.  
• Free of cost
• We will need at least 10 parents to help the kids walk around the park.  We have found the smaller the groups, the better the kids do.  

Please let me know if you are joining us for these!

Grandparents Day:

Mrs. Leet sent out an email about Grandparent's Day.  Here is the link to the invitation and registration.  We would love to have your child's special guest, but we need to know who is coming ahead of time.  Please RSVP by April 15th.
