THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much for all the teacher appreciation stuff last week.  I felt really loved and appreciated.  You guys are the best.

Speaking of being the best, that you so much for coming in to volunteer on such short notice.  I know that not everyone has the luxury of classroom helpers with proper notice, let alone the short notice I gave you.  I am very lucky to have a group that is so willing to help.  Thanks so much.

More good news!  I have an artist.  I have been on the hunt for an artist to spend my money on since October.  I have had 5 ideas and they had all fallen through.  But finally I have nailed one down.  She is a local artist that does mostly jewelry but she will be doing Portland Plates with us.  They will be made of clay and they will commemorate their favorite places and things in Portland.  I am very excited.

Culmination

There are so many dates at the end of the year that I Matt and I decided to combine some dates to try and make things more simple.  On Wednesday, June 10th we will be taking our walking field trip up to Mt. Tabor.  We thought what better place to have our newspaper debut than on the top of Mt. Tabor (Or at the picnic tables under the shelter if need be).  If you would be willing to drive up the papers and the refreshments let me know.  We have not set a time for this event, please give me some feedback about what time works best for you guys.  Is 12 the best so you can do it on your lunch break?  Is 1:45 best because by the time it is over you can go back to school and do pick up?  Let me know so I can set a time.

Have a lovely week,

Allison
