Dear SCE Kindergarten Families,

Unfortunately due to the threat of inclement weather we have made the decision to cancel our field trip to Mike’s Farm. Our hope is to try and reschedule for next week but we do not have that information at this time. Tomorrow will be a regular school day, students will need to bring their backpacks to school with them. I know our students will be so disappointed but our priority is that everyone has a safe and enjoyable day at the farm. We will hopefully have an update about the rescheduled date and will let parents know as soon as possible to plan accordingly. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding.

Today in ELA, Mrs. Horne and Mrs. Oberle introduced their new novel, Phantom Tollbooth. Students had the opportunity to try foods that were related to play on words such as “synonym rolls” (aka cinnamon rolls) and “I’m so grapeful for you” with grapes. The book will lead the 5th graders into their figurative language unit.
