Library Books Ms. Hilda had a bunch of families pick up books last week. They were so grateful that she has offered to do it again for those of you whose children have "nothing" to read.   If you are running low on books Ms. Hilda will be available on campus Friday, May 15, from 12-3pm for drive-thru pickup. You can access the Roycemore School Library Catalog here https://search.follettsoftware.com/metasearch/ui/23890 . Please email Ms. Hilda at  hgonzalez@roycmoreschool.org  with your book selections and estimated pickup time.

Skype with a Scientist! Do you want to chat with a scientist over video chat from your living room?  Skype a Scientist  will match you with a scientist for free! These sessions are Q & A conversations, so you and your kids can talk with a scientist about what makes YOU curious. There are lots of different scientists to choose from!

Spirit Week was so much fun, even when we are not physically together, we can still show our wonderful school spirit!

Here are some great pics from Ms.Stein's Friday Art Challenge on forced perspective photography. These are from children in Junior Kindergarten through Fourth Grade. They are amazing!!
