Dear Sunrise Drive Families,
It has been very exciting to see so many of you on campus
over the last few weeks.!
Our Spring Chinese Festival was filled with fun as our
students celebrated the New Year!
The Rodeo Lunch was well attended with many parents and grandparents
enjoying lunch and the line dancing!
We also celebrated a successful Steppers season with a Fun Run at
recess. The Mustache Race and Car
Wash were popular! The students
enjoyed running, jump roping, dancing and hula hooping! We thank our volunteers for supporting
each of these wonderful events!
Students will bring report cards home for Trimester 2 today.
We will follow a different schedule next week:
· Thursday, March 12th
is a full
day with dismissal at 3:00.
· Friday, March 13th
is spring conferences; we will observe a half-day schedule:
· AM Kindergarten will be dismissed
at 9:30 a.m.
· Full day Kindergarten and 1st-5th
grade dismissal is 11:30 a.m.
The Sunrise Drive FFO Mathathon is successfully
underway. Students will take a
Mathathon test on March 12th as part of the fundraiser. We invite you to join us for Math Night on Wednesday, March
18 from 6:00-7:00 in the MPR to celebrate our Sunrise Drive Mathematicians. Catalina Foothills High School students
and Sunrise Drive Student Council Members will share some of their favorite
math games with you.
We are celebrating Love of Reading during the month of
March. Students will participate
in a variety of activities: writing, reading, making bookmarks, and decorating
doors. Many books, bookmarks and pencils will be shared with students through
the generosity of the FFO. Also,
the FFO is supporting an author visit by Carmen Agra Deedy. All students will
enjoy Ms. Deedy’s storytelling.
Ms. Deedy’s books include the following: Return of the Library Dragon, The Yellow Star, Martina the Beautify
Cockroach: A Cuban Folktale, The Cheshire Cheese Cat: A Dickens of a Tale, and
14 Cows for America. Students
who own a book and would like to have it signed may bring it to school on
Monday, March 16th.
On March 27th,
students may dress as their favorite book character. This will be a wonderful
day as students choose which character and book to celebrate. Please support
your child in creating a costume that is safe for school. Students need to be able to move easily
and safely in their classroom and on the playground as they are dressed as
their favorite character. Look for
fun photos on our website.
A special thank you is extended to each family that
completed and submitted registration materials for your students. Please help
us secure the proper number of teachers for the 2015-2016 school year by
submitting your student’s registration.
We have collected the majority of neighborhood registrations. This is very helpful as we hire our
staff for next year.
Finally, please make a note on your calendar for Spring Picture Day on March 17th. We look forward to seeing you over the next few weeks.
Thank you,
Andrea Davidson
Principal
Sunrise Drive Elementary School
