THIS WEEK’S NEWS
Screen Free Week is In Progress!
We hope that many of our students and families are joining the fun and taking the challenge to turn off their screens for 7 consecutive days.
For entertainment, participants are able to read, daydream, explore, enjoy nature, and spend time with family and friends. This annual celebration gives children, families, schools and communities a chance to turn off screens and turn on life.
Screens can still be used for homework and business but not for entertainment. The idea of this week is to find and enjoy other means of amusement and socializing for seven days.

Proper preparation is important, so please be aware of the following: Good walking shoes, a jacket, and water bottles are required. An especially hearty lunch and sunscreen are good ideas.

Culture Day – May 8
Culture Day is a school wide celebration of the diversity of our school, city, state, and world.
Every classroom teacher will celebrate it differently, however, the one uniting feature will be sharing of food. Children will be asked to bring food to share from their culture or a culture they admire. This creates a wonderful potluck lunch for students and teachers alike and a great way to learn about different cultures.

High School Information Night for 7th Grade Parents is May 16 at 6pm
All 7th grade parents are invited and strongly encouraged to attend this informational meeting about the high school application process. Now is a great time to begin talking as a family about goals and plans for high school. Don’t let the admissions process become overwhelming. Come and get some basic information to help you start planning for this next step in your child’s education.
Students will get a lot of support for this process next year, so this meeting is for parents only.
