Happy May! We are in the home stretch of an awesome year at Stratford! April flew by and May is full of so many exciting events for the children and families!
Placement forms have been sent out through Parent Square.. This is a great way to share some extra insight into your child’s education and any information that you find valuable for his/her next academic year.
The Staff Appreciation Luncheon took place on Monday., April 28 Thank you so much to Hillary Hannan and Danielle Kunz for taking the lead on this event. Also, a huge thanks to Gina Donovan, who always works so diligently to make this such a seamless event. Thank you to all of the families that so generously donated on the Sign Up Genius. This would not be possible without all of your generosity. The staff truly appreciates it and thoroughly enjoys this special celebration of their efforts.
The 3rd Grade has their World Festival on May 16 . They have been practicing so hard. We can't wait to see the finished product!
The Spring Instrumental Concert is on May 14. The 4th Grade Chorus Concert will be on May 28. What a treat it will be to watch all of these talented children perform!

PARP is collecting new and used books for Book Ninjas. These books will be categorized and hidden around town (7th Street, GC parks, and even the GC pool) for students to find and read. Keep a lookout for information on how you can donate!
The PTA is excited for our GC GOAT USA Collaboration. The pop up shop is open until Friday, May 16th. Don’t forget to submit for the GOAT USA Sticker contest as well. Each school has a winner and the winning sticker will be printed for every student.
The 5th graders are finishing up their time at Stratford and the staff always ensures that the last two months at Stratford are full of creating lasting memories!
I would like to wish all of the mothers a very Happy Mother’s Day! I hope you are spoiled by your beautiful children. You certainly deserve it!
