4 DAYS LEFT!!

We had an exciting week at Kramer! Field trips (some in the rain), a pen pal party, a very successful entrepreneur fair and field day! We have a lot of fun left for next week so get ready! Don't forget about early release next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 12:50.

Student Fees:

Fees have been loaded to Talawanda EZ pay If you wish to pay online. You can also pay in the office with cash or check.

Lunch Accounts:

As a reminder, you are able to add funds to your student's lunch account through the Talawanda EZ Pay system. If your student's account reaches -$50 it will be rolled into your school fees. Please be mindful and keep your student's account current. You can use Talawanda EZ Pay, send a check or cash to the school office to take care of your student's balance.

Free and Reduced:

If you would like to apply for free or reduced lunches, please reach out to the Kramer office or Kramer social worker, Chelsea Pike. We can help walk you through the online application or help you fill out a paper form in the office. If you qualify for FREE lunch, your fees will also be waived. (EXCEPT for 5th grade Chromebook fee) If you qualify for REDUCED, fees will be reduced by 85% (EXCEPT for 5th grade Chromebook fee) and meals will be FREE.

Final Forms:

Remember, if you have any changes to your information (phone number, address, who can pick up your student, etc) throughout the school year, change it in Final Forms! The office is notified of these changes and will update our information. IF you have an address change, you must submit new proof of residency to the office before we will update your address.

It's that time of the year - time for the 5th Grade Pool Party! Join your fellow "graduating" 5th graders for a pool party celebration on Sunday, June 1st, from 6 to 8 PM at the Oxford Aquatic Center. This is a great time to celebrate and meet new friends before starting 6th grade at TMS in August. This is a drop-off event for the 5th graders; chaperones and lifeguards will be on duty for the entire time. Parents - please sign up to chaperone or donate items using the QR code. Thank you to the Bogan, Kramer, and Marshall PTGs for organizing the event!

Kramer Elementary parents, one-click, and you're done! School supplies ordered and delivered on time from 1st Day School Supplies. But HURRY, the deadline is approaching FAST! Order here: http://1stdayschoolsupplies.com/gs/81648
