Happy summer students and parents!! We have officially made it! Congrats to you and your kiddos for pulling through and finishing the school year strong. We are all experiencing a different start to summer but don’t forget that our brains still need to be exercised along with our bodies. K-3 teachers are sending home summer packets to encourage students to keep learning.
Parents of any age student, let your children read, read read! Be fascinated with them as they want to learn about new things. Show an interest yourself in wanting to learn. We are never to old to learn!
K-6 parents, if you are wanting ideas or more paper copies of things for your children to do, please contact Mrs. Lukas at sally.lukas@almacardinals.org. Have a wonderful summer!!
Tonight would have been the 6th annual Cardinal Youth Choir banquet. This fundraiser is usually the highlight of the year for the elementary choir kids and it has been disappointing to have to close the year without their normal celebration! Mrs. Fritz and this year’s choir kids wanted to share a little something of what they were preparing. The choir kids sent Mrs. Fritz an audio recording of one of the songs they had been working on and Mrs. Fritz put them together. Even though their time working together got cut short, and they didn’t have a director to watch or fancy recording equipment, they still wanted to celebrate all they had done this year. Mrs. Fritz also was able to deliver this year’s choir awards and the winners are featured in the video. A special thank you to this year’s 6th grade choir members. You will be missed!
