Thank you Grade Parents!

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the grade parents who have done a terrific job this year! Our grade parents are the "backbone" of the classroom and a valuable help for our teachers. They co-ordinate craft days, volunteers for field trips, and send out the weekly bulletin. Truly, they are another set of hands for the teacher. Thanks to Ms. O'Sullivan, Ms. Netupsky, Ms. Colter, Ms. Dmitrieva, Ms. Georgas, Ms. Oosterveld, Ms. Marcolin, Ms. Fox, Ms. Drewnowska, Ms. Clarke, Ms. Race, Ms. Barclay, Ms. Gavsie, Ms. Perrin, Ms. David, Ms. Shaw-Kruppe, Ms. Needham, Ms. DeCaria, Ms. Collings, Ms. Chechnik, Ms. Odorico, Ms. Gardner, Ms. Giancos, Ms. Terzaghi, Ms. Williams, Ms. d'Ombrain, Ms. Busch, Ms. Copeland, Ms. Forte, Ms. Decosimo, Ms. Calkowski, Ms. Keogh, Ms. Stecher, Ms. Thompson, Ms. Bonanno, Ms. Teron, Ms. Robinson, Ms. Beveridge, Ms. Greifenberger and Ms. Zimmer. 

A big thank you to Ms. Lowenborg-Frick who is our Parent Council Grade Parent Co-ordinator. Madeleine organizes our grade parents, answers all kinds of questions, and works with a lot of people to put our weekly Bulletin. We thank her for your commitment. 

Have a great weekend. We will see you on Tuesday.
