End of Year

Wow! It has been a busy week, and it is only going to get BUSIER next week! On Wednesday, we had a wonderful presentation from two Dartmouth fire fighters, Fireman Andy and Fireman Anthony. We learned all about fire safety, practiced what to do in case of a fire, and got to explore a fire truck. It was a really fun and informative program.

Today the Rhythm Room group visited Friends Academy, doing workshops with each grade. As I write, they are practicing outside for their All School performance at 2:00! What a beautiful day for a show!

There is a lot coming up next week. When we return to school on Tuesday, SBS is having our annual "Step up" day. Our third graders will spend some time in the 4th grade classroom with Mrs. Lawless. This will be a great opportunity to get a sneak peak at what lies ahead. On Wednesday at All School Meeting we will present Myriam Jeanniss (from the UMASS Dartmouth Haitian-American Association) with the tuition money we raised earlier in the year to send three Haitian students to Ecole Mixte Albert Choubert. In addition, Mr Felix will talk about the laptops that we will be sending down to this school. Please join us if you can!

Thursday we will have our SBS End-of-Year Celebration in the Commons from 8:30-9:30. I am really looking forward to honoring each of our students and celebrating all their learning and hard work with you!

On Friday, we will head to the Mattapoisett YMCA for our class picnic. Please read the orange sheet I sent home yesterday for more details.

WHEW! It is hard to believe that we have reached this point in the year! I am certainly going to miss working with you and your children . . .but I will not focus on that yet!!

Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

Warmly,

Lee
