Good Friday Afternoon!
NEWS FROM THE OFFICE
Wow……. what a busy week at Georgetown! It was like a whirlwind! We survived the week of Kindergarten screening, talent show auditions, book fair, 4th Grade field trip to Lansing, 5th Graders visiting the Middle School and to end it all Popcorn Friday! We went out with a bang!
Just a note to parents….. if your child walks/rides their bike to school you NEED to send a note to their teaching stating that they can walk/ride their bike home. On the teachers behalf, they do not know when students walk and ride their bikes to school. Thanks for helping us out with this!
TUESDAY/THURSDAY KINDERGARTEN…… This is a very important note about Tuesday/Thursday Kindergarten! APRIL 1ST is a school day for Tuesday/Thursday Kindergartners! We do not start spring break until April 2.
