Updates and Reminders - April 25, 2025

Next week we will begin our fun Z-A Countdown.  Starting Wednesday (Z), each day will have a theme based on the alphabet that will take us to our last full day of school.  See the Z-A Countdown calendar to keep track of the days.  This is meant to be a fun way to wind down the year, and does not require any purchases, no matter how much your child wants a new yellow shirt or crazy socks!  Here are some additional updates and reminders:

  • Thanks to Home and School and the parent volunteers who are helping run Owls Who Love Speed, which meets today (and each Friday for the next few weeks) until 4:15 pm.
  • PSSAs for our 3rd, 4th and 5th graders begin the week we return from Spring Break.  Here is our schedule:
    • Math: Mon- April 28, Tue- April 29
    • Sci (5th gr. only): Wed- April 30, Thu- May 1
  • Next week’s Z-A themed days:
    • Wednesday- Z for Zebra Day.  Wear black and white.
    • Thursday- Y for Yellow Day.  Wear Yellow.
    • Friday- X for eXtra day.  Wear an accessory (hat, scarf, bandana, bracelets, etc.)
  • Oak Ridge Home and School is hosting a Prize Bingo fundraiser on Friday, May 2nd.  Doors open at 5:30pm, bingo starts at 6:30pm. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit the Home and School Web site.
  • May 7th is our Spring Concert which begins at 7:00 pm at the Souderton High School.
  • May 15th is Open House from 5:30-7:00 pm. 
  • In May we will begin our annual placement for next year. As we work to create new classroom communities, we encourage you to share any social issues that you want us to take into consideration, or if you are hoping for your child to have a different classroom experience than an older sibling.  With the complexity of the process, we are unable to take specific teacher requests.  Please email me directly by Friday, May 16th for consideration.   
  • As part of our final Flight session in May we are hoping to have weekly Career/Hobby speakers on Fridays.  Flight Time is from 2:40-3:10pm.  Our goal is to offer the career topics to our 2nd-5th graders and have them sign up for the careers they are interested in learning more about.  If you would like to share about your career or hobby, please fill out the Parent Sharing Form by April 30th. 
  • Here is the latest episode of News From The Nest.

Thanks for your continued support!
