April 25th School Messenger

Good evening Trailblazers,
This is Mrs. Graf with several announcements for you.  I want to remind our carpool parents to be mindful our neighbors on Chambers Road particularly doing our carpool times.  I am asking that you do not block their drive ways during carpool arrival and dismissal.  It is our goal that carpool line moves fluidly once the afternoon bell rings but we do not want to block access to our neighbor's driveways.
Get out your calendars: 
*May 2nd is our Parents Are Connected Night!  This night is especially designed for our parents and students in 3rd-5th grade.  Our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade teachers have prepared presentations and activities just for you to support your child in being ready for the end of grade yearly assessment.  The session is from 6:30-7:30 p.m. 
*May 8-15th is Teacher Appreciation Week.  Our PTA is planning wonderful events for the teachers and we are so excited to support and thank our wonderful teachers for the great work that they do.  More information is coming soon from our PTA. 
*May 9th is our Kindergarten Orientation Night for all parents of rising Kindergarten students.  Please join the kindergarten teachers, our PTA, supplemental services and the Y to learn about a typical kindergarten day, curriculum expectations and how you can support your child in making the transition to Kindergarten.  We will meet in the Multipurpose Room from beginning at 6:00 p.m.
*  May 9th is also our PTA Board Meeting at 1:30 p.m. 
* May 101th is Early Release.  Dismissal for students will be at 1:30 p.m.  If you plan to change transportation for your child, please send in a note or call the office by 10:00 a.m. 

That's it Trailblazers!  Please call the school at 919-890-7333 if you have any questions about this information or visit our school website and click on the Principal's Desk icon to see this information.  Have a great evening! Mrs. Graf
