A very busy week for the first graders is over. Grandparents Day was a huge success and the first graders did a fabulous job participating in the Mass and the May Crowning. They were also very good performing "Spoons". This is also a good time to remind your children that May is the month that we honor Mary, the Mother of Jesus. One way to honor Mary is to pray the rosary.
The talent show will be held Friday morning at 8:30 for grades K-4. It will continue at 10:30 with grades 5-8. You are welcome to attend.
Curriculum is the same with lots of first grade review going on. Your children will be taking a reading assessment on Level 5. I am waiting for a day when all are present. Continue to review vocabulary words and short and long vowel sounds.
A reminder: No spelling test was given on Friday. It will be given on Monday, May 6. No planners or work packets went home.
I know we are near the end of the year but the uniform rules still apply. Some students are wearing the Nike socks with a colored stripe up the back. They are not allowed. Shoes with colored soles are not allowed unless the soles are blue. The only uniform shorts that are allowed are the Dennis shorts. No white sweaters are allowed. The only blue sweater allowed is the Dennis uniform sweater. No nail polish is allowed. If you are unsure check the school handbook. Thank you for your help in this matter.
Many planners and reading packets are not being signed. You and your child are both responsible for this.
Thank you to all of your for your constant help and cooperation. It is greatly appreciated.
