I will be wrapping up testing for report cards this week.  If we could all shoot for perfect attendance this week, that would be fantastic!

Remember that this is a short week.  We have a short day on Thursday, March 27th, and no school on Friday, March 28th.  I hope you all enjoy your spring break!  I will see you all back on Monday, April 7th.

The PTA is collecting items to put into gift baskets for the spring carnival fundraiser.  They are asking for your help.

AM kindergarten's theme is kitchen items.  They are asking for things like cooking utensils, hot pads, dish towels...anything that would fit the kitchen theme.

PM kindergarten's theme is tools.  They are asking for things like screwdrivers, tape measures, wrenches...anything that would apply to the tools theme.

I would suggest that if you are interested in donating, try to find things that are more unique.  I would hate to end up with 20 flat head screwdrivers or 20 hot pads.  
Be creative.  These baskets will be sold/auctioned at the spring carnival and will support the PTA.

Also, kindergarten orientation is this Thursday, March 20th at 10:00 AM.  Please help spread the word.  We hope to get a great turn out.

Again, thank you all so much for your willingness to help out.  It is much appreciated.

Parents,

This is just a reminder about Kindergarten Registration on Thursday, March 20th at 10:00.  Please pass that information along to anyone you know who may have a child who would be attending kindergarten next school year.  So you know, the morning kindergarten students will be singing a few songs for the new kindergartners and their parents.  Both classes will be singing these same songs, and a few more, for our end-of-year program, so please don't feel left out.  We hope to WOW you all shortly!

Also, speaking of end-of-year...I can't believe we are approaching that very quickly...but, I could use some help.  I am wanting to put together some portfolios for my students.  If I could have one or two parents from both classes who are interested in helping with this please let me know.  I want to get started now to avoid the crunch at the end of the year.

One more thing, I will begin testing again next week for the third quarter report card.  If possible, try to avoid any unnecessary absences.  Thank you so much for your help!

Mrs. Mills

Kindergarten Orientation/Registration is coming up on Thursday, March 20th at 10:00 A.M.  This is an opportunity for parents of children who will be starting kindergarten in the 2014-2015 school year to find out about Rosecrest and to register their child for school.  Please help me spread the word.  Thank you so much!
