Kindergarten Graduation Friday May 17th

Image result for kindergarten graduation cartoon pictures
I cannot believe that I am already making this post. It seems like just yesterday it was the first day of school. Our graduation will be on Friday May 17th. This will be the last hour of the school day so for AM it will go from approximately  9:30 to 10:30. PM will go from 12:30-1:30. Parents are invited, BUT please keep in mind that this will be held in our classroom so space is limited. Please no younger siblings at our graduation. This will not be a big production rather just a small program that will include them getting their certificates, watching a short video, and eating cupcakes. This will be such a fun day! Thank you for all your love and support.

Special Dollar Dress Down Day this Friday April 26th

We are so excited to announcehelp that this Friday we will be having a dollar dress down day. This is a very special dress down day for Mrs. McBride. The money from this dress down will go directly to a project that Mrs. McBride and her son are working on. In July, they will be going to Fiji on a service trip to help families in the village of Narikoso.  This village was directly hit by Cyclone Winston and is still recovering over two years later.  They will be helping in rebuilding structures as well as helping the villagers with business development, personal hygiene, dress downsustainability, and English lessons. If you would like to donate money you can bring money for the dress down day. Thank you so much for your help and support for this exciting project.

WHOlives Service Learning Project

Today we attended a fun assembly by WHOlives. Their mission is to bring water, health and opportunity to children in developing countries that are at great risk, due to scarce and contaminated water.

We discussed the world water crisis and were invited to participate in the Change for Water Challenge. The Challenge invites students to bring in coins throughout the week to help create a well in Africa.  Students are encouraged to do chores at home or for friends and neighbors to earn the coins to bring to school each day.

Help us donate the coin of the day:
Tuesday= Pennies and Nickels
Wednesday= Dimes
Thursday= Quarters
Friday= Dollars (Dollar dress down day)Screenshot 2019-04-10 19.44.08
