Field Day!
Last day to RSVP for the AR Dessert Banquet! If your child made all 3 AR reading goals this year, you should have received an invitation to the June 2 Dessert Banquet. Please call the office at 369-5597 to RSVP.
Help is needed any time from 9:00am – 2:00pm on May 28 to get our students’ art displayed for the Art Show on May 29. Artistic ability is NOT needed, but you will have to know how to use a stapler! The art work has to be stapled to display boards and tables need to be covered. The students have been working hard all year on their artwork, so please come and help to get it looking it’s best! Please contact Marlene Perez at marlenevperez@comcast.net to help out.
Parents are invited to the last garden meeting of the year – the garden volunteers will be discussing what worked this year, and planning for next year. They would love to include more volunteers in the garden next year, so people can come learn more about the program. Please stop by the garden at 10:15am – For more information, please contact Megan Goulden at megan.goulden@gmail.com
Thursday, May 29
Come to the last Parent/Principal coffee! Parents are invited to come and meet with Principal Girardi over a cup of coffee and snacks at 8:00am in Room 1 (the room across the hall from the school office). Hear first hand about district and school news, talk about any issues or concerns you may have or just come for the coffee. This is also a great opportunity to meet other Roosevelt parents! This is a very casual meeting so if you can only drop in for a few minutes, you’re still welcome to attend. Spanish translation is available for those that need it. If you have a younger child, you are welcome to bring him/her. Tell a friend!
Open House / Art Show at 5:00pm

Kindergarten field trip to Happy Hollow Park & Zoo
