We've made it to the last week of the quarter! It has been a privilege to teach each of your children over the past 9 weeks and watch them grow. I cannot believe we are one quarter of the way through the school year!
This weekend I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Great Hearts Gala! Our own class mom, Priyanka Miller, and her husband Darin, were the 2019 Gala Chairs and they put on a wonderful event! Arete was well represented, and lots of money was raised for the Teacher Excellence Fund.
What's going on in 4A:
- It was wonderful to have so many grandparents in our class for Grandparents Day last Friday! The kids were so excited to show off their class to their grandparents, and to show their grandparents off to the class! Thank you to those of you who volunteered to help make this event a success!
- As we reach the end of the quarter, we will be celebrating with a party Friday afternoon. You can sign up to volunteer at the party or send in supplies here.
