Spring Fling Music Concert 

We had a great music concert on 
Tuesday night due to the efforts of 
all the children, parents and Ms. 
Lamerson. Many thanks go to 
Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Warren, Mrs. 
Monteith, Ms. Swann and other 
staff for making the time to 
practice and encourage our 
children to sing. 

Eighth Grade Events 

Eighth graders have more than the 
usual number of activities over the 
next few weeks. These are very 
important activities, so please note 
them. 

Last Day Of School 

Assuming there are no more 
school cancellation days (for 
storms, etc.), the last day of school 
will be Thursday, June 16. It will 
be an early dismissal day with 
buses leaving at noon time. 

Field Day 

On Thursday, June 16, students 
will enjoy a new fun event -- Field 
Day. The morning will feature a 
wide selection of activities for all 
kids. Jennifer Gray, a member of 
PTF, has spearheaded this special 
event. She is looking for help, 
so if you can spend some time 
here on the 16th, please call the 
school. 

IMPORTANT NOTICE

 In order to prevent owed 

 balances on meal/milk

 accounts at the end of this

 school year, there can be no 

 ‘charging’ of meals or milks

 effective Wednesday, June

 1st. Students must have

 money on account for all

 meals and snack or extra milks

 for the last two weeks of 

school. 

Dessert Theatre 

On Friday, June 10 at 6:00 PM, 
students in grade seven will be 
performing an original play, The 
Three Bears, the Smashed House 
and the Broken Heart, as a fund 
raiser for their grade 8 class trip. 
Tickets are $8.00 for adults and 
$5.00 for kids ages 4-10. Children 
under age 4 are free. A wide 
selection of delicious desserts will 
be served. 

This will be a nice way to 
spend an early summer evening 
and an even better way to help the 
seventh graders out. 

School Improvement Team 

The next School Improvement 
Team meeting is on June 6 from 
5:30-7:00 p.m. All are welcome to 
attend. 

Teacher Workshop Day 

On May 31, teaching staff will be 
at the Brooklin School in the 
morning to review writing 
prompts. In the afternoon, they 
will be at the Sedgwick School to 
begin to plan out themes for the 
first two trimesters of next year.
