I hope you had a lovely weekend! As we approach May, the school calendar is full of wonderful events. This Saturday is the Mountain Auction at Bargetto Winery at 5 p.m. Friday May 18th, is the Spring Concert at 5:30 p.m. Finally, Wednesday May 23rd is Open House. The 2nd grade Open House will be starting earlier and ending earlier than the other grade Open Houses, so I also attend my final birthing class. We will begin Open House at 5:30 p.m and end at 6:30 p.m, allowing you to visit other classrooms, which open at 6:30. I look forward to seeing you all at Open House and celebrating your child’s growth with you.
