Dear Families,

I know I have been overwhelming you all with information about the Shira Kline Shabbat on March 19th, but I want to make sure we have a great turn out. Students will be asked to come to school on Thursday, March 18th instead of Wednesday, March 17th to participate in a workshop with Shira. I will also be inviting the 2nd graders from the Friday group to join us. I am looking for 3 people to help set up on Friday morning, March 19th and 3 people to clean up after Shabbat.

We will be scheduling parent teacher conferences in the next few weeks so expect an email to confirm a time to meet with your child's teachers. We will meet from 5-5:30 during school time. Each meeting should take 10-15 minutes. We would like to touch base about each student's progress, goals and areas to focus on.

Sunday, March 21st is a community soup supper that the Education Committee is helping to host. These are wonderful free events for the entire Island to enjoy soup, salad and bread. It is also a Slow Music Jam evening with Klezmer music. If you would like to help with this event, please let me know. The school children will be making a pot of soup to share.

On Wednesday, March 24th, at 5:00 PM there will be a camp info session with Laura Gurvis. Laura is the Assistant Director of URJ Eisner and Crane Lake Camps. She will show a short movie about the camps and answer questions from parents and students. Please join us! There is scholarship money available so please come and take part in this program.

As always, please email me or leave a message in the office if your child is going to be absent on a Wednesday or Friday.

Todah/Thanks!
Nicole Cabot
