Thirty, Fun-filled Days left in Fourth!

The next two months will be full of exciting activities.  First we will be testing (CRT) beginning this week. Please make sure your child is getting a full night's rest and eating a healthy breakfast! The testing will end May 8th.  It is difficult for a student to make a test up and so, we encourage perfect attendance during this time.  Check with your individual teacher for a complete schedule. 

This Thursday, the 22nd, the PTA is sponsoring a Walk-a-Thon.  A highly-energized afternoon is planned with many prizes, silent auction gift baskets, and food! Registration begins at 3:30. Walkers will start at 4:00 p.m. and be done at 5:00 p.m.  Following will be pizza, one piece FREE for each walker and $1.00 per piece after that. Our PTA has worked hard to put this together. Let's support our PTA!

On May 13, each class will have a poetry program called "Poetry in the Park" and we encourage parents to join us.  We will mostly be in the Kiva, with refreshments outside.  We look forward to seeing you there.  Each teacher will be sending invitations with information about the specific time.

We have been writing 4th graders from Deerfield Elementary and the students are excited to meet their pen pals on May 14th, Friday.  Students will be playing games first and then eating lunch. This event will be at the Heritage Park which joins the school playground.

Ahoy Mateys! May 19th is the dance festival with this year's theme: A Day at The Movies.  It will be at Lone Peak High School and start at 12:30.  Our movie theme song is "Pirates of the Caribbean". We are asking students to wear jeans rolled up to the knees (to give the knicker look) and also a white t-shirt. We will provide some accessories. Wearing an eye patch, painting on whiskers, and/or wearing an earring are optional.

Get your pioneers clothes ready for Pioneer Day on May 21st.  We will be having many activities that day and we hope many parents will join us.  We are especially needing help with running the stations. If you are interested, please contact your child's teacher.

Thank you for your continual support.  We could not have an outstanding 4th grade without your help. We enjoy partnering with you! Thanks for having amazing 4th graders! We will miss them.
