May 24-28

This is the last week of third grade. (BooHoo)

Please come to the Spring Arts' Night tonight at 7:00. Our performance is at 7:15. Our artwork is displayed in the hall by our classroom and also on our desks. Don't forget to stop by the computer lab and see our power point projects.

Our nature hike is Thursday at 12:30. We'll hike up the Fiddler's Hiking Trail and then stop at Rachel's house and Dax's house for a rest. If it is really hot, we might run through the sprinklers at Josh's house to cool off.

The fourth quarter awards assembly is Friday at 10:00 A.M. School is out on Friday at 2:30.

It has been a great year and I have enjoyed working with your children. Thanks so much for all the volunteer hours that you have put in this year. Thanks to Mrs. Zortman for burning all the DVD's of our classroom movies. Thanks to Mrs. Jensen for playing the piano for us all year long, and we appreciate that she missed part of Tanner's game to play during the Arts' Night. Mrs. Eberhard was so willing to jump in and do whatever needed to be done. There isn't room to thank everyone that helped make this such a wonderful year. My life has been greatly enriched by getting to know each student and their family. Have an excellent summer! Mrs. Bayer
