Happy May! I hope you all enjoyed your Spring Break. We have so many exciting things happening this month at Homestead!
Congratulations to all of the Reflections winners. They were recognized at our second District-wide Awards Ceremony last month. It was a very special night for these talented students.
Spring Sing is this week! This is always a favorite among both students and families. Dress your child in their best Spring attire and be ready to take some pictures! Thank you to Mrs. Glickman, the music teacher, for her hard work and preparation. Remember, this is an outdoor event, so don’t forget a blanket to sit on and your ID!
The PTA is excited to sponsor Jester Jim for our Spring Family Fun Event on Thursday, May 11th. The first graders will see the performance at 9:30am, and the kindergarteners will see it at 10:30am. Families are invited to bring a blanket to sit outside with their children during the show. Get ready to be wowed! Please note that in the event of inclement weather, the performance will be rescheduled for Monday, May 15th.
Staff Appreciation Luncheon will be on May 16th. Please keep an eye out for the SignUpGenius that will be emailed soon. Thank you so much for helping to make this day so special. The staff is always very appreciative of the efforts.
May is also the month in which the Budget Vote takes place at the High School. The PTA supports voting “Yes!” for the budget. Please see the main PTA newsletter for more information about the upcoming vote.
Our decorating committee continues to work hard to make Homestead such a beautiful, happy place. Thank you for helping to make Homestead so welcoming!
The school nurse, Mrs. Schneider, is seeking donations of small water bottles to be distributed to children who come to her office. Please use this link if you are able to donate. Additionally, please remember to send your children to school with water bottles. It is especially important to stay hydrated as the weather turns warmer.
Warmly,
