Sadowski update 2/11/15

Tuesday February 17th the 4th and 5th graders will have their performance at the High school auditorium.

Students are asked to wear black or dark pants.  Girls wearing skirts are asked to wear leggings under their skirts due to the fact that they're going to be moving about on the stage quite a bit, and the entire lower section looks "up" from a vantage point below the stage.

Shirts can be any color of the rainbow... red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and lilac.

Mrs. Heinzleman has asked that they wear dress shoes if they have them. Again if they're growing so fast its hard enough to keep them in tennis shoes let alone dress shoes, whatever they have is fine.

Students need to be in the music room between 6:30 and 6:45 for a last minute mini rehearsal. The program will begin at 7:00

During the school day on the 17th all the 5th grade teachers are being pulled out for round #2 of Dibels training.  Dawn Phelps will be my sub. I have full confidence that the kids will be awesome as usual.

Spell list for this week is as follows:
