Spring

It's feeling like Spring!

As always, we get very busy this time of year
so here's the current happenings:

This Friday (tomorrow)- the whole school is going to HSU to the Math Fair.
So far, the K-2 class has enough drivers/chaperones but we still need seats for older kids.
Please sign up if you can help- and don't forget those car seats for students under 8.

Sunday is the Foggy Bottom Milk Run- the kids have been training hard and
are ready for this event.
If you are planning to carpool- Sarah will be meeting at Trillium at noon
and leaving promptly at 12:30.
Katie is willing to drive Eureka students, so if you are interested please call us ASAP.

*DON"T FORGET THE TIME CHANGE*
Clocks are moving one hour forward Saturday night.
Also- please consider that there is only one road in and out of Ferndale.
If you are planning to meet us there plan for extra travel time as there will be congestion.

Next week:
Monday:
* Science Fair projects will be moved to the County Science Fair.

* The Steering Committee will be meeting at 6:00

Friday:
* 3-5 grade students will visit the County Science Fair at HSU
They are planning to walk & have a picnic lunch if the weather is good.

March 21
* K-2 students will try again to visit the Natural History Museum- parent drivers needed

March 30
* 3-5 grade students are going to see the Eureka Symphony
This show begins at 9:30 so we need to be there by 9:20!
Please help us get there on time.

Looking Ahead:
April 2-6: Minimum Days and Parent Conferences all week
These are the last scheduled conferences for the year- please look for sign ups

April 9-13: Spring Break


Thank you so much to everyone who donated to help us buy a chiller for our baby salmon.
If you have not seen it yet- the tank is set up in the Magic room.
Your generosity is sincerely appreciated.

As you probably know- the budget crisis in California
is hitting schools very hard this year and into next.

We are looking at some spring fundraisers for our end of the year trip
and improvements for the fall. Please watch for information in your parent boxes.

As always- if fundraising is not something you have time or energy for
you can always donate directly to the Trillium Club.

We are currently enrolling students for the fall.
If you know someone looking for Kindergarten
or maybe just needing a change, please have them call us at 822-4721.

Thanks!
