Families of Room 31 ~

First – I want to congratulate the children for their hard work and outstanding efforts they put forth while taking the MCAS exams this year.  I could not be any prouder of each and every student!

This time of year, our schedules tend to run amuck.  I recommend you mark your calendars regarding some of these upcoming events.

BLUE COMMUNICATION FOLDERS - Please clean out your child’s Blue Communication folder when it comes home.  Recently, I have noted that several students still have forms / papers in their folder when I am placing new mail into their folder.

PHOTOGRAPHS NEEDED – a notice is going home on Monday with your child requesting students bring in photos of themselves.  We will use these to create a photo collage of your child for the Completion Ceremony.

TISSUES / CLEANING WIPES – Although I thought we were going to make to the end of the year, these past two weeks (allergies and colds) have depleted our supply of tissues and cleaning wipes for the tables.   If you have a spare box or container of wipes you could donate, we would appreciate it!

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
