Our pop tab challenge is wrapping up!

Good Evening Straub Families! It feels bittersweet to send to you my final weekly reminders. It doesn't seem real that the year is coming to a close and to be honest with you, I don't like it. I love the sounds of laughter, seeing kids walking and sometimes skipping around the halls, the teacher leaders of the class bringing items to the office, the line leaders keeping everyone moving through the halls and the excitement that new learning brings everyday at Straub. It's truly a wonderful place to watch our kiddos grow and learn. There is nothing better than the love of learning in both our students and staff. This week we have field trips, end of year carnival, transition day and the last day of school. Monday: 1/2 2nd grade field trip Tuesday: 1st grade field trip Wednesday: K field trip and 2nd grade transition to MCIS. Students will have the opportunity to meet the 3rd grade teachers. Our teachers will accommodate our students to MCIS and introduce them. Thursday: End of year Carnival: our parking lot and the front of the building will be closed off. If you need to drop off late or pickup, please park in the PreK parking lot and walk up. Friday: Last Day of school: 3:15 dismissal. This day will be amazing fun and games. We will have our 2nd grade clap out for 2nd grade parents at 9:30 in the gym. We have grade level and school wide activities going on all day. Reminder: our doors open at 7:20 and dismissal at 3:15. Buses will run a bit faster each day as Preschool has finished their year. We can't wait to see our amazing students tomorrow!
