Happy Easter

 Welcome to the home stretch - the final seven weeks of school.  I hope everyone rested during this past week and you're ready to end the year strong.  Congratulations to Connor and Taylor on their marriage yesterday and wishes for a life of love and happiness.  

Tomorrow, we launch the final weeks with a solar eclipse (partial for us).  The eclipse will begin at 1:47 pm with maximum coverage at 3:05 pm and it will end at 4:19 pm.  Lisa has purchased eclipse glasses for the middle school, and they will go out to the soccer field at 2:45 pm.  If you teach an elective, please send the students back to class at 2:40.  We will have classroom pickup so that parents will be responsible for their children at the height of the eclipse.  An email will go out to parents telling them that middle school pickup will start at 3:05 to allow them time to come back in from the field.  Please do not take students out for recess after 1:45 pm.  First graders should be closely supervised walking back from PE and students going to their elective in the gym should also be closely supervised.  Extended day students should remain inside until 4:15 pm.  

Gail sent everyone an email asking for Tidbits by 8 am Wednesday morning.  This deadline cannot be extended as she will not be in Wednesday-Friday.  I would ask that you aim for the end of day Tuesday if you want something in this week.  

The PTCO book exchange will take place on Friday (see Nicki's email for more details).  Please remind the students on Friday that this weekend is a uniform/free dress weekend.  

Over the next couple of weeks, students will be completing the ARK test and students in grades 4-8 will complete the School Culture Survey. Both will be discussed at Monday's faculty meeting.  Have a wonderful week!
