ES Principal ENotes- February 8, 2016

Dear Parents,
Thank you to the PTO for sponsoring our successful “Family Bingo Night.” We had a big turn out with fun, food and prizes. What a nice way to cap off a beautiful Sunday in Warsaw.

Please plan to support our Elementary Play: Annie Jr. Over 50 students from Grades 1-5 have been working hard since the start of the year both on and backstage to bring this production to the ASW community. Performances will be in the theatre on Sunday, 14th February at 15:00 and Tuesday, 16th February, after school. Tickets will be available at the door for 10zł.

Have a wonderful week.
Jen

AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES

ATTENTION REGARDING SWIMMING: There was some confusion about the start of before school Swimming Clubs - this activity is scheduled from 7:30-8:15, however, students should arrive 10-15 min earlier in order to change and be ready to go in the pool at 7:30.

As always, we remind you to pack an extra snack when your child has an activity as there is no time to go to cafeteria before the start of activities. Also, please remember to pick your child up promptly at the end of the activity as sponsors might have other responsibilities afterwards and should not be expected to stay longer.

Students are expected to follow the school code "BE RESPONSIBLE, BE RESPECTFUL, BE SAFE" in the co-curricular program, too.

Library News
We were fortunate to host author David Schwartz last Monday and Tuesday. Students from PreK-Grade 8 had the opportunity to attend his presentations on the wonders of math and nature. Students were highly engaged when he demonstrated how much a million is with progressively larger amounts of popcorn. Thanks very much to the PTO for providing the popcorn! We have a few of the author’s books (now signed) left for sale in the library.
