Weekly Update

Hello Parents,

We had so much fun at our Valentine's Day Party and during our 100th Day Celebration! I hope you enjoyed the pictures on our Twitter. All the students tell me that celebrating the 100th Day was their favorite day of the year!

Pinebrook STEAM Expo:
Thank you all for the supply donations for our annual STEAM Expo! Please keep them coming! We have a particular need for pipe cleaners, index cards, straws, construction paper, and tape. We are looking forward to STEAM Expo Day on Friday, March 2nd! The 1st grade team is in great need of volunteers to help with this event. Please consider spending part of your day with us to see your child's creativity in action! Don't be intimidated about volunteering...we provide all directions, and all materials for each activity. A teacher is present in each classroom at all times. Please sign-up to volunteer by clicking HERE
