Mr. Posick's Friday email

Happy Memorial Day weekend! Memorial Day is an American holiday, observed on the last Monday of May, honoring the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Thank you to all of you who served, are serving, or are related to someone who served our country.

Today, May 25th, Stone Bank is hosting a 6th grade dance. The dance is for all 6th grade students from any of the Arrowhead feeder schools. The dance is from 4:30-6:30PM.

Mrs. Iwanski is collecting used or new backpacks to be sent to the Dominican Republic this summer to provide kids the supplies needed at a growing school. If you have a backpack (or 2) to donate, please drop it off at either office and Mrs. Iwanski will collect them and direct them to the proper channels to have them shipped. Deadline for donating backpacks is Wednesday, June 7th, our last day of school. Here is a link with more information.

Our 7th annual Celebration Day is scheduled for Friday, June 2nd. In the coming weeks you will hear more about this from our PTO and PE teachers. Keep an eye out for some exciting opportunities that have been planned for that day.

Camp Invention is coming to Merton this year as part of our summer school program for the amazingly low price of $35.

Spots are filling up incredibly quickly, and we anticipate this opportunity being closed very soon. Want to register? Please call Camp Invention customer service at 1-800-968-4332.
