Week of April 11

Greetings!  Today, we are posting many upcoming important dates; first, though, is a picture of 2 students with some of the 50+ origami butterflies we made recently.  We are sending these butterflies to the Committee on Temporary Shelter in Burlington.  
That organization is trying to break a world record for origami butterflies 
in celebration of their 35th anniversary.

Important papers and dates:
1) last Friday, students received a newsletter with a "placement/feedback" paper for 7th grade; those papers do not have to be returned, although you are encouraged to provide the feedback (thank you in advance)

2) Wednesday, students received an informational page to take home about Pick-a-Time (conferences are coming up in early May)
