As part of our Data Analysis unit, students finished planning their year end party today.  It is going to be a blast!!  The theme is beach (time to pull out the shorts and tank tops, sunglasses and hats)!  We will have a blue and purple decorated room and will be feasting on all sorts of tasty treats while watching a movie and doing centers.  I can hardly wait!

Reminder:  There will be a new swimming permission form online (by tonight or tomorrow morning) for the Wednesday (10:00 -11:00) and Friday (8:45-10:15) swimming times.  Please ensure it is completed before Wednesday morning.
