Good Morning,
I am sorry I am only getting to this post today. I traveled to Pittsburgh over the weekend and am here until Tuesday. I have my nephew's high school graduation today and was psyched to be able to attend. I will be back in school on Wednesday. Zack Smithwood is the substitute for the two days.

Last week I started most of our end of the year assessments that the district requires. It is always great to see the progress that the students make on these and I was very pleased with the results so far. I will finish up the reading test this week.
Upcoming Events:
June 5th: This will be the last day for parent volunteers in the classroom. I greatly appreciate your time and service this year. The students are better off because you have your time and for that I am truly grateful. Volunteer times will be back next year.
June 8th: We will head to Georgia Elementary School to visit our pen pals. We will be leaving school at 8:30 and returning before the end of the day. I will take a lunch count on Wednesday so that Cheryl can have bagged lunches ready for that morning. Kids cans till bring their own form home if desired. If you have had your background check done and would like to join us, please let me know this week.
June 17th: This will be our school's annual Field Day event. This is always an exciting time for the kids and involves them being out in the sun and having the potential of getting wet form the water activities. Please make sure your child dresses for the weather, the day itself, and has plenty of sun screen on. If they have water shoes or sandals, that would be a good choice too.

June 18th: Report cards will be sent home. Look for them in your email.
June 19th: The Last Day of School. Every year I cook pancakes for the students on the last day. It is a fun way to celebrate our year together and a final celebration as a class. If you would like to donate something for this event, please sign up here.
We will also have an all school assembly on that day at 9:30. We will eat lunch at 11:00 in our classrooms and then have dismissal at 11:30. At 11:25 that day, we will line up around the perimeter of the school (outside our side emergency door) to give one final cheer for our graduating 6th graders. Feel free to join us out there at that time.
That is all for now. I hope you all have a great week.
Peace,
Tommy
