Thank you for coming in for conferences recently!  If you were unable to schedule a conference, a progress review will be sent home.

This Thursday morning, we have a speaker coming in to talk with students about birds; you could view her web site at http://www.birddiva.com/

Week of April 25

Welcome back for the last few weeks of the 2015-2016 school year!  We hope you enjoyed yourselves over the break!

**Independent Reading folders are due this Thursday, April 28.**

In early May we will have a speaker from Bird Diva Consulting spend time with the students.  This visit is a "prize" our students won after submitting their waterfowl art work in a contest.  This is a link to the speaker's web page:  http://www.birddiva.com

Friday, April 1, 2016

There has been a change to our schedule of upcoming events for next week (and this is NOT an April Fool's joke).  Our trip to Jay Peak for next Tuesday has been cancelled.  We will not be going to Jay Peak next week.

Mrs. Branon has indicated that cash payments would be returned and that checks would be shredded.

On the positive side, this change of plans means that our students will be able to take part in an author's visit also scheduled for next Tuesday.

Thank you, and have a great weekend!
