Sherwood Updates

Hello Sherwood Families,

We cannot believe we are nearing the end of the 2021-2022 school year. We had a wonderful 5th grade party today and are excited about all of the fun events coming up next week!

On Tuesday we will have Field Day and temperatures will likely be high. Please consider sending your child(ren) to school with a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen if that will help them enjoy their time outside.

Ms. Cook, Coach Milos, and Mr. Shanahan have been busy planning a day full of fun and engaging activities! We have many parent volunteers coming and we cannot thank you all enough. It is a big team effort and having more hands on deck is greatly appreciated. Please refer to the list below to ensure your panda is wearing the correct color on Tuesday!

Kinder - Green

1st - Yellow

2nd - Red

3rd - Purple

4th - Orange

Our 5th graders get to choose their own color. They can wear red, orange, green, purple, or blue to represent the colors of the Panda STARS!

We hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend.

Panda Pride,

Rachel & Kevin

The Flower House & The Audi Exchange of Highland Park

We are truly a part of an incredible community! The front entrance of Sherwood has been adorned with a GORGEOUS installation compliments of The Flower House and The Audi Exchange of Highland Park.

We are so grateful for this act of kindness. It has put a smile on the face of every passerby. We know this will be the perfect place for those last-day-of-school photos next Thursday!

A Message from the Nurse Jill

Wow—It is so hard to believe it is almost the end of the school year! Congratulate yourselves and your children for a job well done after all the challenges posed to you in 2021-2022.

I am writing as a reminder for you to pick up your child’s medication in the Health Office by the last day of school, which is Thursday, June 2nd, 2022. Only a Parent or Guardian may pick up the medication. It may not go home in your child’s backpacks or with older siblings. Please let me know if there are any questions.

Have a great summer with your family!

Nurse Jill
