Classroom Notes
Since we took cap and gown pictures this week, I am getting a few questions about the date of the Kindergarten graduation. We don't have a graduation ceremony here at CES. Instead, we bring you the GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH! Yes, we put on a full length circus performed by YOUR children! It is the highlight of our year and an event that you DO NOT want to miss!
If you have changed your email address or cell number since the beginning of the year, please send me the updated contact information. My group texts and emails are getting kicked back from a lot of my contacts. I don't want you to miss any important here at the end of the year. May is one CrAzY and FuN month in Kindergarten! Remember to check the blog too! www.kilgorescubs.blogspot.com is updated multiple times weekly with this information, snack calendar and pictures of the Cubs in action! Check it out!
