URGENT!

Urgent School News

The Issaquah Police has informed us that there is police activity in our neighborhood and that all children need to be accompanied home by an adult. There may be limited access to roads around Grand Ridge, therefore you may need to park and walk to pick up your child. If you are unable to get to the school, please call a person on your emergency contact list to take your child home.

If you arrive by car, please park and go to your child’s classroom to check them out.

Important: We have not been instructed to go into lockdown

Boxes Needed

Our teaching assignments have been decided for next year and I will be moving to Endeavour Elementary to teach full day kindergarten. I will still teach Grand Ridge students, it will just be at a different building.

I am in need of boxes for this move. If you are able to send in any boxes that I can use to move all of my classroom materials in, I would be forever grateful!

Thank you so much,
~Mrs. Perry

Got Science?

Got science? The proposed new elementary science materials are on public display through June 8 at the Administration Building. Because of unprecedented state budget cuts, a community coalition—including the Issaquah Schools Foundation, PTSA, and chambers of commerce—is raising funds to bridge the gap so that the curriculum can be fully implemented next fall for every kindergarten through fifth-grade student. With two weeks left in the campaign, the coalition is still about $187,000 short of its goal (a target of $50 per elementary student). Learn more about how you can help.

THANK YOU!!

A big thank you to the PM class and the wonderful birthday surprise you gave me upon meeting you today. I certainly was surprised! I love the boquet of balloons; they brighten up the room so much! And the cookies...oh my. Those are officially my favorite cookie. :)
Thanks for making my afternoon so special!

Music Concert This Thursday!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Recently in music class the kindergarteners have started preparing for their concert Spring Into Summer. It is scheduled for Thursday, June 2nd in the multipurpose room at Grand Ridge Elementary. Because we have six sections of kindergarten, there will be two performances:

9:30 a.m. Thomas, Lanham, Perry a.m.

3:00 p.m. Cooks, Dolen, Perry p.m.

If your student would like to practice at home, we have posted the lyrics on Ms. Badgley’s website at www.wix.com/abadgley/grand-ridge-music. The link is on the “concerts” page.

Attire for the concert is to wear bright colored summer clothes as follows:

· Boys can wear nice pants (no jeans or shorts) and a collared shirt

· Girls can wear a nice skirt, dress, or nice pants (no jeans or shorts) and a blouse

We look forward to seeing you at the concert!

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to email Ms. Ransom at ransomk@issaquah.wednet.edu
