Physical Education

Hi Super Cool Students and Parents,

4th term is almost here. It is hard to believe we are down to the last three months of school.

The 5th and 6th grades have just finished up their Indoor Soccer tournament. I witnessed some really great soccer, played by these amazing student athletes! I am so proud of every student who came out to play in the tournament!

1st and 2nd grade will continue to learn how to tie their shoes. Kindergarteners can still earn a prize if they know how to tie shoes at the end of the year, but I have shifted to focus more on first and second grades. Parents, please encourage your student to practice at home so they can earn a prize at the end of the year.

The 6th grade Valentine's Dance was so much fun!! I am so proud of all of my 6th grade classes!! Every student came ready to learn the steps, work hard, and most importantly had the right attitude. Way to go sixth graders!!

If you have not already filled out the Disclosure for PE, please do so with the link below. I need each family to click on the link, read the disclosure letter, answer the questions, then hit submit. Only one per family is needed for all of your students.

Fourth Term After School Club information is below. They will start the week of April 6th and run for six weeks. Parents you have 4 weeks to sign your students up. Parents you can start signing your students up the first week of fourth term.
