Team Mindcrafters Daily Update - 5-5-16

Parents,

It was an exhausting, but fun week.  Mrs. Dressel and I are ready to embrace the chaos and busyness that is the month of May.  As the year winds down, it is very important to remind your child to maintain their focus on their school responsibilities and to give their best effort on all tasks.  Students will continue to be expected to read nightly and complete their one daily homework assignment until the end of the year.  We don't want any of the children to miss out on the fun end of the year activities because they need to make up missed work or catch up on reading.  You can help your child by making sure he/she has a  time and place set aside each night to complete their school work.  Thanks so much for your support with this.

Have a great weekend!

Permission slips.  Two important permission slips went home today.  One is for Bike Hike and one for the Fort Meigs Field trip.  We are looking for chaperones for the Fort Meigs trip.  Fill out the form at the bottom of the permission slip if interested.  We do not take chaperones for Bike Hike, but you are welcome to park somewhere along the route and wave at the kids as they ride by if you'd like.  Please sign and return these forms right away if possible.

Fun Fest.  Mr. McAfee said he is running a little short on parent volunteers for Fun Fest this year. If you would be able to help out in any way, please let him know.  (nmcafee@anthonywayneschools.org)

Thank you.  Parents, thank you for all of the nice notes, e-mails and small gifts Mrs. Dressel and I received this week for Teacher Appreciation Week.  A couple small gifts just popped up on our desks, so whoever they were from, thank you!

Happy Mother's Day!  Happy mother's day to all the moms, Mrs. Dressel included.  

Congrats!  We have another student who mastered all 131 4th grade objectives in Accelerated Math today.  Congratulations, Jaden!
