Thanks to all our kindergarten families who have helped us throughout the school year. Thanks for assisting us in the classroom, preparing materials at home, bringing in supplies, helping at our parties, and for doing so much more. Your contributions of your time, talents, and resources are greatly appreciated. God bless you!

*We need helpers for the kindergarten field day.
*If you are available to prepare cookies for Thursday, May 29^th, please contact Mrs. Abbate for information on refreshments.

Kindergarten Portfolios
Mrs. Pedrozo and I are completing a large portfolio for each student in our class. Each big book includes photos, writings and other projects completed during the course of this school year. Please come in and pick up your child’s portfolio and other personal belongings by Friday, May 23^rd. The portfolios are too much for the children to carry.

After the closing prayer service, please pick up your child’s “star/rainbow” which will be taped to the front of the stage. Also, see me for your child’s final report card and your pre-ordered keepsake DVD.

Dismissal is immediately following the prayer service.

A special “Thank You” goes to Mr. Ron Hoffart for preparing the keepsake DVD.

God bless you and have a great week.
