Dear Parents and Guardians,
Math
Congratulations to Jurgen H in grade 2 for finishing his 12x12 times table.
Open House
The German Open House was a big success. Thank you to all our young bilingual ‘ambassadors’ for proudly showcasing their classes and the bilingual program, and their parents who brought them on Thursday night. We had 20 families come. We already have 13 registrations for next year!
Paying for Fieldtrips
At this point in time, we have paid for approximately $5,000 and approximately $3,000 have been paid by parents. At this point, we are short $2,000. If you have not paid, please do so. If you are unable to pay, please see Ms. Corey.

The front door to let students in to eat breakfast opens at 8:45am. If your child is not eating breakfast at school, the side doors open at 8:55am. Student pick-up is at 3:40pm. Please be on time for this, too. The office closes at 4:00 pm.
Open Minds
Ms. Buckner’s grade 2 class had a lot of fun during their field trip this week. Open Minds is such an amazing opportunity! Thank you to all the parents who have volunteered.
