PICNIC, Please make plans to join your child in the third grade courtyard from
12:00-12:30. They will share with you much of their work from this school
year. It's a great time to see the growth they have made this year and
celebrate their success. Because this is a school wide event, you will
want to get here early.
Tips on things to bring that will make the
time more special:
smiles, a blanket or chairs to sit, a lunch with your child's favorite
things, and plenty of water as it is to be hot and humid.

with a book that gets them excited about reading over the summer.
