Children's Museum Field Trip
I had a parent ask this question and wanted to share in case anyone else wondered as well: If you have a museum membership AND will be going with us that day you do NOT need to send in $1 for your child to ride the carousel. As long as you are there and have your card with you your child rides for free.

Kindergarten Awards Day
For those who like to plan ahead, Kindergarten Awards day is scheduled for Friday, May 25, from 12:45-2pm. Kindergarten students are all asked to dress up like their favorite Superkid on this day! Look through the online portal or the Superkids books sent home to get ideas. Start planning now! We will have a Superkids parade through the school that morning. Then at 12:45pm, we will start our program in the gym. It is important that all students have someone to celebrate with them on this day! All 5 Kdg. classes will sing our favorite Superkids songs, then each child will be called to the stage to receive their Kindergarten diploma from Dr. Heiden. Finally, we will return to the classroom so students can share their portfolio with you, watch our class video, and receive other special awards. Please have someone plan to attend on this day!
