Armstrong Update 2-17-16

Greetings Armstrong Parents!

 

                This week’s newsletter is coming earlier than usual because it contains important information about our Armstrong Overnight on Thursday and Friday! Today your child will be bringing home with them a Large Ziploc Baggie containing a Small Ziploc Baggie, a Black Trash Bag and a bright pink packing list. Please use the Black Trash Bag for all sleeping gear. Use the Large Ziploc Baggie for your child’s sack lunch Thursday and the Small Ziploc Baggie for any toiletries. 

 

Please be at Mayo between 7:30 and 7:45 on Thursday morning so that we can hit to road ASAP. When you get to Mayo on Thursday morning, have your child check-in with their homebase teacher to receive a label with your child’s name and bus number to put on their belongings. The packing list is attached as well as a more detailed schedule and other important information.

 

FYIs and Reminders:

  

-            Summer School enrollment has started, please check with the office for more information.

 

-            5^th Grade Pancake Breakfast is next Saturday February 27^th! Please see the attachment for details on how to purchase tickets!

 

-            Please remember to return your home ‘n backs to the tubs in the cafeteria or the front lobby. Please make sure to get these returned every week before Thursday morning.  There is a tub in the office and one in the cafeteria where you can drop them.  Thanks so much!

 

-            Don’t forget to check the lost & found and the lunchbox table on a regular basis! 

 

-            Dismissal Reminder – If you pick your student up, you should always enter through the North cafeteria door and exit through the South cafeteria door.  This allows for the safety of everyone and is not meant to inconvenience anyone.  Thanks for your cooperation and consideration.

 

 

  

As always, if you have any questions please feel free to email your child’s homebase teacher, myself (embryel@tulsaschools.org) or Mrs. Moore (mooreco2@tulsaschools.org).
