April Showers Bring May . . . Showers?

I didn't think that was how the saying actually went, but that's what seems to be happening!

I hope everyone enjoyed the time they had off in April. It's hard to believe May is already here. Pretty soon our 5th graders will be graduating and we will be getting ready for kindergarten orientation!

We concluded the NYS math assessments this week, with the exception of a couple of make-ups. The students put forth their best effort and that's all we can ask. Speaking of math, the math words of the week were line segment, ray, angle, acute angle, and hour hand. Next week's words are minute hand (M), quarter hour (T), elapsed time (W), A.M. (Th), and P.M. (F).

Please join us on Monday night at 6:15 in the WGHS LGI for the May PTA meeting. This will be followed by Dr. Brown's budget presentation at 7:00. District residents will be asked to vote on the budget on Tuesday, May 20th at the high school.

Please remember that Friday, May 16th will be a half-day. Dismissal will be at 11:30. Our spring Open House will be held on Wednesday, May 14th from 7:00 - 8:00. Shuttle buses will be provided from the high school parking lot on the Applebees side. I hope you can make it!

Enjoy the weekend!
