Weekly Update 3/14

Hello KA parents,

We are so excited to celebrate St. Patrick’s day tomorrow at the SMM Parade, at 2:00.  It looks like the weather will be nice, and we hope to see you there! Remember to wear GREEN!  KA will have special rainbow posters with the Shamrock Trinity to show our SMM Irish Spirit.

Next week, we will be focusing on the letter Uu and the sight words “here” and “was.”  In math, we will continue working on subtraction, and studying how addition and subtraction are related. 

*Save the date! Our second field trip of the year will be to the Everett Fire Station, on Friday May 4th.  This is a short field trip, with about an hour long tour.  More information will be coming later, but if you are interested in driving/chaperoning, please make sure you have all necessary trainings and forms on file with the school office ahead of time.  

*Scholastic book orders are due by the 23rd.  If you choose to order books,  you may send it in to me with a check or you can order online (online class code is P74D8.)  I will submit all orders for March on the 23rd.

Upcoming dates:

  • Tomorrow: Thursday March 15- St. Patrick’s Day Parade at 2:00, please come to watch if you can!  Wear GREEN!
  • Friday March 16- No school, teacher in-service day
  • Saturday March 17- SMM Shenanigans (adult-only event). Parents, hope to see you there! Don’t have a babysitter? Leave the kids at home with dad and make it a “mom’s night out”!  This is a fun, casual event that supports our school.
  • Friday March 30- Good Friday. Kindergarten will attend the “Living Stations of the Cross” at 11:00 with the school.  Please join us if you can!  Early dismissal at 12:00 (no lunch).
  • April 2-6 Spring break, no school.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!
