PRINCIPAL'S MESSASGE
Happy Spring! We are thankful for warmer weather and longer days coming our way. We have many fun field trips, activities, and end of year things coming up.
Attendance is so important during the last quarter of the school year. We will continue with our random attendance awards, so you never know when your child may get a treat just for coming to school. Please send in a note when your child is out sick so that unexcused absences do not
accumulate. NC guidelines require us to send a letter home at 3 days, 6 days, and 10 days. Good attendance is essential to helping your child reach their goals.

LIBRARY CORNER
Thank you everyone who helped make the spring book fair a
success. We would like to thank all of our parent volunteers and Beta Club student volunteers. We could not do it without you!!!
The library has recently received a small grant from the Sherlock Holmes Jan Struber literary grant. These funds will go to purchase Sherlock Holmes graphic novels and other fun mystery books. Mystery games that promote teamwork and critical thinking skills will also be used.
