SCRAPBOOKS FOR RETIRING/DEPARTING LOWER SCHOOL TEACHERS!

As you may know, both Mr Tome and Ms Shea will be moving on from  
Sidwell at the end of this year.  If your child would like to complete  
a page for a scrapbook for either or both teachers, please do so by no  
later than May 31st.

Please sign your child's full name, current grade, and if applicable,  
email or facebook contact.  Please feel free to include a picture, a  
poem/haiku, or any thought or drawing to share with Maurice or Lana if  
your child was a student in one of their classrooms and would like to  
participate...

For contributions to Maurice Tome, please email Liz Baldick at [email-masked]
for contributions to Lana Shea, please email lisa gunty at [email-masked]

Also, it is not too late to submit contributions for Virginia Singer  
and Ellie Lash -- the deadline has been extended to May 23.  Please  
see the Tuesday letter announcement below.

First Grade teachers Virginia Singer and Ellie Lash are retiring at  
the end of the school year after 60+ years of combined service. Their  
current first graders are putting together special scrapbooks for each  
of them. They would like to make the scrapbooks more meaningful with  
notes and thoughts from former students. If your child was in Mrs.  
Singer and/or Mrs. Lash's class, encourage them to take a moment to  
write a nice note to each of them. They can include favorite memories  
from first grade and best wishes. Blank note cards for students are  
available in the Middle School Office and may be returned there when  
completed. Parents, if you have fond memories of Virginia and Ellie,  
you may write your own notes and return them to the Middle School  
office or email your messages to First Grade Room Parents Jenifer  
Panner ([email-masked]) or Scott Montgomery  
([email-masked]). Thanks for helping celebrate these two  
wonderful teachers.
