Principally Speaking
May 2012
It is hard to believe that the end of the school year is upon us.
Our students just concluded the annual State testing, also known as the STAR or CSTs. The teachers worked extremely hard to prepare them to succeed. Thank you, teachers! We also thank our parents for ensuring that the children got a good night sleep, and arrived to school on time, ready to do their best. We are looking forward to a great outcome when the results are released this summer.
Jumprope for Heart
Last March 30, students, teachers, staff and the principal jumped rope on the playground for our heart health. This was in celebration of a successful coin drive for the American Heart Association. Our goal was to raise $100 in change, but we exceeded that and raised $210.67! This money goes towards research and treatment for children with heart disease.
Way to go, Sunshine Gardens!
Have you visited our multi-purpose room lately?
Prepare to be impressed by our students’ work on display on our newly-installed bulletin boards. We are thankful to the crew from our school district’s facilities department, who listened to my vision of the layout, took measurements, purchased materials, then built us those bulletin boards.
I cannot forget a wonderful group of moms who covered and bordered the boards, ready for display of student work. Thank you all!
When you visit the MPR, be sure and peek at the Perfect Attendance board, to see a list of students with 100% attendance for the past month.
As you know, the class with the highest percentage of attendance in any one month gets to house our school mascot, Sunny G the Stallion.
