End of Year Picnic and Beach Clean Up – Next Friday, May 25
The annual Kittredge end of the year picnic will be on Friday, May 25 at Baker Beach. Parents and families are invited to join us, so mark your calendars. The school will furnish paper products, condiments, ice and charcoal. Each class member will be asked to bring something from the following:

4/5: hot dogs & buns – 1 or 2 packs each

At 10:30 (while the picnic is being set up) the school will be leading an organized clean up of the beach area. The picnic will begin when the clean up is finished. Parents are welcome to come, help and eat.
