                               Saint Andrew School: 
 Building a culture of life, and a civilization of love through faith and knowledge

                       Mrs. Russo's Pre-K4A Classroom News.....


I can't believe we are just about at the end of our school year!!!   Our last day of class will be Thursday, June 2nd.  We will have our end-of-the-year closing ceremony inside the classroom at 9:00.  All are welcome to attend!!!  Arrival for this day will be our normal arrival time (8:00-8:10).
Following our ceremony, we will have our end-of-the-year picnic at Dermond Field.  We do have a permit for the playground/picnic area.  All children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the picnic.  More information about this day will be sent out in the near future.  Unfortunately there is no rain date so fingers crossed for nice weather!

For the remainder of May our themes will be Zoo Animals, Dinosaurs, Ocean Animals, and Summer Fun.  We only have two more letters to go: Z and Q.  After that we will be reviewing all of our letters.  The children have worked very hard in their ABC Interactive Notebooks.  We can't wait for you to see the final result!  For our Ocean Animal theme,  a visitor from the Adventure Aquarium will be coming to our school.  We will be excited to see what our visitor brings from the ocean!

In Religion, we will be focusing on our Blessed Mother Mary.  Each day during the monthy of May, we will take turns crowning our Mother Mary and reciting the Hail Mary.  If at anytime during the month of May your child would like to bring in flowers (a single flower or a small bouquet), we will put them on our religion table by our Mary statue.  Speaking of mothers, keep a eye out for some treats coming home and a link for a very special video. :)

On Wednesday May 25th, we will be walking to Cocco's Pizza for a fun field trip.  It is just a short distance away from the school.  Please keep a look out for a permission slip.  The pizza store will only be open for us and the other Pre-K class.  There is no need to pack a snack that day since the children will be eating the personal sized pizza that they make.  We will have juice boxes for the kids.

Lastly, there is NO SCHOOL on Thursday, May 26th, Friday, May 27th, and Monday, May 30th (Memorial Day).  The final progress report will be sent home on the last day of school. 

                                                    Thank You and God Bless,
                                        Mrs. Kellie Russo and Mrs. Michele Brown
