PROGRESS REPORTS
Second trimester progress reports are being sent home on March 25th.

EARTH HOUR
This year we will again be participating in the Earth Hour program, a worldwide recognition of global energy usage. Activities will culminate on Friday, March 26th, when all students are asked to wear black and we will be shutting off our lights at 2:00 until the end of the day. We hope you will join millions of people around the world by shutting off your lights from 8:30-9:30 pm on Saturday, March 27th. For more information, please go to www.earthhourkids.org

CALLING ALL FIRST GRADERS!
If you have a child that will be entering first grade next fall, or know somebody who does, please call the school at 623-8088 to begin the registration process. A child must be six years old on or before September 30th to enter the first grade.

BICYCLES TO SCHOOL
Students should not be riding skateboards, rollerblades or bicycles on school property during the school day. If students ride a bicycle to school, they should walk the bicycle to the bike rack as soon as they enter school property. Because the front gate is closed until afternoon pick up, we are moving the bicycle rack to the front of the building. Students who ride their bikes to school need to come along Mast Road and park their bikes in the rack. In order to deter theft, bicycles should be locked to the rack. We ask students not to ride bikes to school until the rack is in place. Also, for safety reasons, children should wear helmets whenever they ride a bike, rollerblade or skateboard. Thank you.
