We will be celebrating the 50th day of school on Thursday, your child may dress up for the occasion 50's style if they wish.  

We will be taking a trip to Walker Park on Friday, to clean up and have some fun! CCS has adopted Walker Park and this will be our first clean-up outing.  We will leave the school around 9am.
  
Everyone is doing great!  Ask your child to tell you the months of the year and the days of the week ; they are very proud of themselves for mastering both.  Thank you for sharing your children with me.  They are a joy.
