Friday the 13th

CONGRATULATIONS ON AN AMAZING YEAR!!!!!!!  

Monday, June 16th, is the 8th grade trip to the beach, and the last day before Moving Up!

Please remember to bring a lunch and drink, bathingsuit, towel, hat, sunglasses, sunblock and any sports equipment (including basketballs as there are courts there next to the wild beach roses).   We also recommend a sweatshirt in case of chilly breezes and anything else one might want at the beach (ipod, walkman, etc).

It’s going to be a great outing, followed by the dance that night.  :)

Tomorrow is your last Friday of Middle School! Holy moly.

1. Bring in your signed dance permission slips. Deadline is tomorrow!

2. Dress for the High School’s graduation: no jeans, shorts or Tshirts, and preferably no sneakers.

The Day’s Schedule:

The morning will be as usual. After recess, will will have a short Middle School meeting (FAMILY FEUD!) and then go to NYU for the graduation.  When we return, those reading speeches at the Potluck or the Moving Up Ceremony will stay after for a short rehearsal.  The potluck is here and begins at 6 pm!
See you soon! :)
