Sullivan Scoop

May 10, 2019
Hello, Sullivan Families,

It is hard to believe that we are counting down to the final weeks of school! This time of year is busy with learning, reflection, and celebrations. While we are still finishing up our last units of the year and learning new material, this is a time to reflect on our progress and celebrate how much we have grown this year. The graphic above is a great reminder to breathe and enjoy the ride. We have 19 days left with your wonderful kids and we intend to enjoy every minute with them!

Before I share some important information about upcoming events, I want to thank you for the AMAZING teacher appreciation week treats and notes you showered our staff with. You truly made us feel like Superheroes. Thank you to the PTO for organizing another amazing teacher appreciation week.

Mrs. Finnander is looking for volunteers to help with Field Day on the last day of school! Please click this link to sign up and join us for some fun to celebrate a great school year!

The Bright Bytes Survey closes on Monday. We are still looking for parent input, so take a moment to take the survey for Sullivan.
