Our Character Education Theme for May is Courage

The weekly quotations are:
Week 1:    It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be the person you really are.
 
Week 2:    It takes great courage to admit to your mistakes.

Week 3:    Courage means doing what is right even when afraid.

Week 4:    A coward turns away from danger while the courageous person chooses to face danger and ones fears directly.

Parents

Have the April showers finally ended and will the May flowers be in full bloom soon?   In Western New York that answer is always a mystery.  I guess we will need to wait and see.

Our first and second grade students will be completing the Terra Nova Assessments beginning on May 13th and ending on May 16th.   Please review the separate memorandum sent to you to help relieve any anxiety your child may have about these examinations.

Please remember to exercise your right to vote during the Annual District Budget Vote that will be held on May 20th at the Lake Shore Senior High School Main Lobby.  The polls open at 7:00 am and will remain open until 9:00 pm.  Have a wonderful month!

Our final book fair will be held on May 27th, 28th, and 29th.  Our PTG sponsors the fair, and as in the past we will be offering a "buy one book get a second book free sale."  This is an excellent opportunity to encourage summer reading at an affordable price.  The PTG will hold their next meeting on May 27th at 7:00 pm and all are invited to attend. 
 
On May 30th, 2008, we will "Rocket Into Reading" as we hold our annual Read-a-Thon Day.  Additional information regarding this exciting day will be forthcoming.
