Hip, Hip, Hooray for Leadership Day!

Wow!!!! These kids did a fantastic job showing off all their talents and hard work.  Every child in our classroom was able to talk with some of our guests and share some of their learning and leadership roles and skills.  I was one proud teacher sitting back and listening to your students.  Thank you to all of you who helped out by practicing with your child, sending props with your child, getting them in their ilead shirt and to school, stopping in during a practice to help us get some real practice in, allowing kids to stay late a couple days, etc. you are all very much appreciated.  It definitely takes a village at times.  I wasn't able to snag very many pictures since we were a little busy, but here is one picture of us enjoying our popsicles outside as a little payment for our busy day!

Can you believe we are at the end of April already!  Below you will find some upcoming dates we have, please be aware that as we begin our final month of school there are often disruptions to our typical day.  If you know in advance that your child is going to be absent please let us know as soon as possible.  We are working hard to do our best to reach our end of the year goals in all areas.  Please offer reminders to your kiddos that we need to do our best until the very end and work hard!!!!!
