May Newsletter

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Can you believe how quickly this year has gone by? It’s exciting to see some of our students reaching a huge milestone—getting ready to move on to Kindergarten! They will definitely be missed. We’re so proud of all their hard work and achievements, and we truly appreciate the support and encouragement you’ve given them along the way. Thank you for being such an important part of their journey!

There are still so many fun and exciting activities coming up in May! We can’t wait to enjoy the last month of school together and celebrate all the amazing accomplishments of our students. Be sure to check out the important details below, and if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to give us a call at (903) 841-7860.

Sincerely,

Lisa Killebrew

Principal

Tater Tot Attendance Challenge

The excitement is building as the classes compete to see who can get the most "perfect attendance days"! We're all looking forward to finding out which class will claim the fun-filled Sonic Tater Tot party.

Bike Drawing for Attendance and PAX Leader Behavior

Mr. Troell from State Farm Insurance kindly dropped off four bikes for us to give away. We'll be awarding them to two students with perfect attendance and two students who showed fantastic PAX leader behaviors and served as great role models for their classmates. The lucky winners will be drawn on the last day of school, May 20th—good luck to all!
