Dear Minnesota River Families,

We cannot say enough... We so appreciate all that you have done for our community this year--for the children, for the school, and for us as guides.  You have given so much of yourselves for the welfare of the Minnesota River classroom, in ways too numerous to recount.  

Please accept our humble thanks for all of the above, and the way you made us feel even better about what we do as educators.

Your children are so amazing, so precious, and we are honored to have spent the year with them.  We will miss them, and we will miss you as well.  You are wonderful!

Our very best wishes to all of you and your families,

Erik and Patrick

Attached are just a few of the gratitude expressions created by the children.  They too reflected thankfully on all that you have done for them.  I wish I could have photographed all of the posters for you.

End of Year Ceremony

Hello!

Just in case some of you missed it, there is a End-of-the-Year Ceremony on Friday on the school grounds.

It begins at around 11:00 and parents are welcome to come and observe but space is very limited.  The kids will be singing while looking back on a successful year and looking ahead with anticipation of the upcoming school year.

Ice cream will be served afterward and parents are welcome to pick up there child from their designated area afterward.  Buses will be running as well.

I hope that helps.  Please let us know if there are any questions.

Things to know about the last few days

Greetings,Families!

We hope many of you had the chance to connect at the All School Picnic Friday night.

Here's what to expect and here are a few requests for the last week:

1. Please have your child bring 2-3 books or activities to enjoy for the remainder of the week. We have had to pack up most of our books in the classroom :( so it would be wonderful if your child could bring in a couple of books to read during our silent reading time in the afternoon. 
2. Como Pool on Wednesday! Please help your child remember to bring the following: backpack, walking shoes, swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, packed lunch, and water bottle. They may also bring goggles or a life jacket (they will also supply life jackets at the pool). Please do not send pool toys or money.  
3. Clean up day on Thursday. The children will be helping with clean up around the room and they will be bringing home all of their work on Thursday. If you can, please send in an extra bag or backpack, just in case.  We will be spending the afternoon at the park on this day.
4. Noon Dismissal on Friday! Can you believe this is only 3 days away!? Please do not send a backpack or lunch on this day. They will be dismissed right from the ceremony.  The children will be gathering and dismissed from a designated spot (in our recess area), after the ceremony, so please come and pick up your child from this area if you are joining us for the ceremony.  

Wishing you all the best and more,

A couple of things

Hello!  

As we approach the final week of the year, both Erik and were wondering who had volunteered to look after our beloved classroom pet, Gex.  We didn't keep a record of which family had volunteered to care for him over the summer.  Could you email us separately to remind us?  Thank you!

Also, reminder to have your student dressed in their swim suits and appropriate outerwear (along with sunscreen) on Wednesday for our trip to the Como Pool!

Thank you all!
