We're back!
Today is our first day back to school. It seems we've been out a lot this year. With all the bad weather, state of emergency, and spring break, we've never had this much time away!
The rest of the week should be a combination of learning and discovery. Beve will be there with her camera on Thursday. Then on Friday we are trying to take a field trip. TBA today!
Because Easter has fallen as it has, the dates allow us two more whole months of school before summer break. Of course we continue to do class in the summer unlike most other places, and this allows us to continue to teach and learn. This summer on Monday and Thursday, we'll have regular school days through June, July and the first week of August. I think Edith said that public schools in Vanderburgh County begin August 11. We won't take a break this summer except for July 4th.
We are still working on summer field trips, and in this month, a packet will go out to all those who signed up for summer. We're going to try some new things this summer, and it should be a really wonderful experience for the kids. Lots more swimming, and really good field trips. Tuition will go up to support this, but there will not be a field trip fee.
This month the focus is Spring Sing and Scholastic Book sale at the end of the month. Then in May we will have our awards ceremony and a picnic.
It's been an interesting year, and it continues.
Cradles for lunch today, and pizza tomorrow. The kids have taken a liking to white pizza.
