Thank You!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful birthday, and Teacher Appreciation Day! I was touched and honored by what you did for me - I get teary-eyed just thinking about it!
You have been a great joy to work with this year. The support, love, encouragement, and care that you give to your children is amazing. The students have worked so hard, I am so proud of what they have accomplished!

The Strawberry Festival is this Friday from 3:30-6:30. Thank you to all the parents who were able to donate some time to work at our "Sensational Strawberry Sun visors" stand :) In case your child hasn't informed you yet, I'll be in the Dunk Tank, towards the end of the festival - come on by and try to knock me in! Some dismissal forms were sent home today, if you're planning on coming to the festival right at 3:30, this will allow your child to stay at school until you get there. I look forward to seeing you there!


In addition to the Strawberry Festival Dismissal form, a School Tube permission slip also went home yesterday. This will allow me to post your child's PhotoStory work online so that you can view it, and send it to family and friends! UES has a specific channel on School Tube, and your child's last name is NOT on the video. School Tube is very similar to You Tube, only appropriate for more elementary school-aged students. Here is the link for our UES channel if you'd like to check it out:

FYI... for upcoming events...

Our end of the year celebration will be Friday, June 10th at 10:00 AM...details to follow soon :)

LAST spelling quiz is TOMORROW, May 29th

Field Day is June 3rd

Finally, Mrs. Pangborn and I will be putting together a summer activities packet for the students. It includes math activities, FCPS recommended book list, and a calendar of possible activities to do over the summer. In an effort to avoid wasting paper, we ask that you email us to let us know if you are interested in having this for you child. Please let us know by Friday, June 5th if you are interested, thank you!
