Weekly Update for 05/30/17

Boxes Needed
CAES is going to be painted over the summer break.  This means that all of our classroom materials must be taken off of the walls and shelves and placed in boxes.  If you have any boxes that you are able to donate to help us, please send them in especially boxes that will hold books as that is what the majority of the shelves in our classroom contain.  Thank you!

Boxes Needed
We will be having an end of the year celebration on Friday, June 16 at 10:30 in Room 200.  At this time we will have a short play and song to sing.  I also have awards that I will present to each student as well.  Following our celebration, you are more than welcome to take your child and begin summer vacation early.  

Summer Tutoring
Anyone interested in summer tutoring for grades K-3, please let me know as soon as possible.  I am available for tutoring in math and reading at this time.  Typically, I schedule 1-2 sessions a week that are 1 hour in length.  I charge $20.00 per session and we meet at the Carrollton Public Library.  Because we are meeting at the library, the hours available for tutoring are based on their hours of operation, which are listed below.  If you would like more information, please e-mail me as soon as possible  (cgmorgan@iwcs.k12.va.us).
