Welcome!

Welcome new parents of 5MC!!!
First of all, thank you so very much for filling out that massive pile of paperwork that came home last night!  We've never had such an outstanding return rate on the first day of school!  Mrs. Pamboukes personally came down and thanked us for the various health forms that were returned.  It really makes our jobs easier not having to nag children about them.
Secondly, we are just having a ball with your kids so far.  It's been really hot in the classroom, but they are still working hard at whatever task we ask them to accomplish.  The beginning of the year is filled with learning and practicing routines, and working on cooperation so that the rest of the year goes smoothly.  It's fun getting to know each of these children and watching how they work together.
Feel free to ask your child about the silent challenges, summer learning, and timelines they've been working on.

Our special schedule this year is as follows:
Monday - Art
Tuesday - Art *rotating special day
Wednesday - Music
Thursday - Gym
Friday - Library

Thanks also for all the school supplies you sent in with your children, along with the boxes of tissues and Clorox wipes!  We appreciate it!

Gratefully,
Mrs. McGuigan and Mrs. Carr
