I have also added the Welcome letter/Syllabus to last week's post.  (See below.)

Lastly, I forgot to mention that McTeacher's night is this Thursday (5 to 7:30 pm) at McDonald's at Sleater-Kinney.  Come and support, for a percentage of the proceeds will come back to be used in the classroom.

Thank you for all you do!

Blessings,

Picnic--Tuesday, May 31

We are finishing out the year strong, so a celebration and some fun in the sun is quite warranted. The plan is to spend our day enjoying God’s nature with a devotion, lunch and treats, organized games, and a water gun fight.

Sign up for an item to pitch in and make our picnic a de-"light."  Please email or let me know via your child what you would like to contribute from the list below. Then, I will place your student's ID number next to the item to reserve it:

2.       Driver for 15-passenger van#2 (and re-fueling after dropping the kids off):

3.       Picking up (pre-ordered) pizza order from Costco ($2 per slice) OR the purchasing and/or grilling hamburgers ($2 each per order) and hotdogs ($1 each per order). These food items will be paid for in advance so as to not under or over estimate quantities needed and help with costs associated.

5.       Veggie tray with dip

6.       Fruit tray
