Lost and Found
We wanted to let families know that we do have many items in the lost and found. These items will be donated at the end of the year if they are not collected by families. We will be sure to invite students to peruse the lost and found. You are also welcome to visit the school to see if there are items belonging to your child.
Adopt a Plant Program for Students
Thank you to all our students who have worked hard to plant and care for our school's naturalization space. To keep the space growing and looking beautiful, we are looking for volunteers to help water and care for these plants throughout the summer season. There will be a sign-up sheet at the front desk through the month of June for anyone interested in helping.
If you want to volunteer to 'adopt a plant' this summer, you can:
1. Sign up with Ms. Best at the office by putting your name next to the plant or space of your choice. Sign up runs June 2-20
2. Come and get a welcome kit with supplies, instructions and garden book, from Ms. Best from June 16-20
3. Care for your section by watering from the rain barrel, fertilizing and weeding whenever you are able to - just do what you can!
4. Return your garden book in the fall to Ms. Best and celebrate your good work!
If you have any questions or need any help, ask your classroom teacher.
