End of the Year Party...

Attention Parents/ Guardians,

There are only 18 days left until the last day of school! We would like to plan a special party for the end of the year on Thursday, June 4th. We have started brainstorming about a Hawaiian Luau themed celebration. Some activity ideas include: limbo, water balloon toss, hula dancing, “make your own lei necklace,” and tie-dye t-shirts for students to autograph on the final day of class. It would also be fun to have students bring in food items for a Hawaiian-style lunch such as fruit punch, pineapple and other fruits, cheese, macaroons and perhaps some type of chicken skewer.

We realize this may be costly and will require several helpers! We are looking for suggestions and ideas to make this party successful! We will be holding an open meeting for all parents to bring in suggestions on Thursday, May 14th at 8:00 a.m. We hope to exchange ideas and form a team/committee of parents to take over each aspect of the party.

If you cannot attend, please get with us at your earliest convenience to find out what you can do to help! You can write a note in your child’s planner and we will get in touch with you either via e-mail or by phone.

Thank you for your support!

Your Teachers,
Miss Fisher & Mrs. McCaffrey
