THE BUZZ at Lawsonville!
A weekly school-wide newsletter for parents
May 29th
Field Day
Our field day is scheduled for next Monday, June 4th. Our rain date is June 5th. Here are several important reminders:
Our lunch charges continue to be very high. We understand that families forget and we also understand that families have many financial responsibilities/obligations. We cannot, however, ignore these charges. Letters with specific amounts go home with students on a weekly basis. If you received one of these letters, please take care of these charges as soon as possible. If you need to set up a payment plan, please contact Mr. Ottaway or Mrs. Southard. We will be happy to work with you. Students who have outstanding lunch charges will not be permitted to participate in end of year activities, such as field day, awards day, etc.
EOG Testing
We will wrap up our end of grade testing on Wednesday. We will offer the beginning of summer enrichment program again this year. This will be offered on June 8th-15th. (excluding the weekend) This program gives students who were not proficient on the regular test a second opportunity to show proficiency. Parents of eligible students will be notified on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. Many of our students took advantage of this program last year. 3-5 parents, as you’re making vacation plans for the summer, please keep these important dates in mind. This program was a HUGE success for our students last year.
Awards Day
Our annual awards day is coming up next week on Wednesday, June 6th, at 1:00 p.m. in our gym. Parents of students who will be recognized will receive advance notice. Some notices will be sent home a little later due to the nature of those recognitions.
5th Grade Graduation
Our fifth grade graduation ceremony will be held on Thursday, June 7th at 8:30 a.m. in our gym. A small reception will follow the ceremony in our new picnic shelter area.
Early Dismissal
All students will be dismissed at 11:00 a.m. on June 7th. This is the last day for students.
Yearbooks Are Still Available
We have a few “extra” yearbooks for sale if you did not order one in advance. They will be available on a “first come, first serve” basis for $25.00 as long as they last.
PTA News
Thank you to everyone who came out and supported our spirit nights throughout the year! We averaged $60 per time which definitely helped with several expenses this year.
Thank you to all who helped with Teacher Appreciation Week. We could not have pulled it off without all of your help.
Recent expenses:
PTA will be sponsoring the water slides for field day this year. We are very excited to bring back some of the fun and excitement of the large inflatables.
PTA also purchased all 5th grade D.A.R.E. shirts for the recent D.A.R.E. graduation.
PTA will meet on June 4th at 6:30 in the media center. All parents are invited to attend.
