  1. Hello Ms. Senecal! Thank you for posting the schedule this week ... I was wondering if there will be a class party after the parade and if so, can I contribute some treats and/or is there a chance for class room visit by the parent ... namely me? Looking forward to seeing you all on Thursday!

    1. Hello, yes, yes, and yes! Below this post is some information that went home last week. The parade is at 12:45, be there a little early if you want to watch from the gym. You are welcome to come up to the classroom before the parade begins to help with costumes. You are also welcome to join the celebration in the classroom after the parade. Treats are welcomed and appreciated. I look forward to seeing you.
