Auvigne's 4th Grade Update

Celebrating 10 years...
Honoring the Past, Celebrating the Present,
Looking to the Future
FYI
-
Good Afternoon,
We will be taking our Math MAP test on Tuesday, May 13th at 12:20pm.
Thank you so much for all of your generosity during Teacher Appreciation Week. I feel so blessed to be a part of this great community.
The 5th Grade is sponsoring a Canned Food Drive for Harvesters for the week of May 12th. If you would like to be involved in this community service project you can bring in canned food items to school and place them in the Harvesters bins located in the front hallway.
Growth and Developement lessons will be on Monday at 1:00pm.
We will be heading to the Wilderness Science Center on Monday, May 12th to make up our rain out date in October. We need 3 more parent helpers to join us, please e-mail me if you would like to attend! We will be leaving at 8:40am and returning at 2:20pm.
If your child is interested in performing in the talent show, forms are available on the CHE webpage under eDocuments or from the office. These are due on Friday, May 16th.
Be sure to check the Upcoming Events section below to see a full listing of activities.
Also be sure to check the May events in the CHE E-Update.
Have a great week!
Worth Repeating...
We want to express our appreciation for your prompt completion of the 2014-2015 on-line registration process as this helps with staff planning for next year. If you have any questions, please contact the office.
You child's individual pictures came home this week. You may choose to purchase any portion of the package, and return whatever portion you do not wish to purchase. We would like to collect all payments and/or returned packages by Friday, May 16th.
As we get closer to the end of the school year and excitement builds, we seem to be struggling a bit more with self-control and following directions. Many routines and directions we have had in place since August are being forgotten. Any discussions you can have at home with your child as reminders would be appreciated. Thank you.
