It's here and it's in action! Kid Town "creating" has been a hit this week! It's been so fun to see the students use their God-given gifts and talents to make and create things. What imaginations they have! We've been working hard to create things for the "Trash for Cash" store, handing in homework to receive money, and today the students even had the opportunity to tithe from their own wallets! We are once again reminded why this is such a great couple of weeks in our Christ-centered school! It was such a neat teaching experience!

HOMEWORK:
A new packet of special Kid Town homework is coming home today. NOTE THAT ALL KID TOWN HOMEWORK IS OPTIONAL, but will be a big part of your child's "income." It will work the same as last week SO PLEASE SAVE THE BIBLE MEMORY PAGE (new verses are on the back). Bible memory verses will stop after Tuesday and your child will only need to hand in the reading/math half sheets.
KID TOWN:
The BIG week has arrived! Next week we will have our town set up in the gym! This town will come alive from 12:30-1:30 each day. Please know that even if you didn't sign up to help, you are all welcome any day during the week to stop by and check it out between 12:30-1:30pm! :) We will be in Kid Town from 10:25-11:25 on Friday, April 26.
We have a few slots left if anyone still has time to come and help out, thank you SO much to those who have come in already! Huge help! We are so grateful for your support!

CLEAN UP!!:
We would ABSOLUTELY LOVE any and all help on the final Friday of Kid Town, April 26, right after school to help clean up Kid Town. Any parents that can come and lend a hand would be SO appreciated! This is such a big project, and by the end of the week we are so grateful for extra helping hands! Please mark your calendars! :)
Words of the Week:
Our words from our final set were: really, understand, question, against, old, happen, several, someone, slowly.
Our 3 new words this coming week are: follow, better, since.
Look for a blue half slip in your child'd backpack on Monday!
5th Grade Buddies:
On Friday, April 26, 2nd graders will be traveling to Pine Ridge to shop at Market day. Pine Ridge 4th graders have created and set up a Market Day as part of their Social Studies learning and we will be shopping with our 5th grade buddies. If your child would like to shop on this day, please make sure they bring $2-$3 to school. Most of the items sold at Market Day cost $1.
If you have chosen to be in the “Dutch Heritage” section, remember that you’ll need to wear a Dutch costume. If you chose the “Tulip” section for the parade, you will want to make sure that you have your Holland Christian Walk-a-thon t-shirt ready to go.
Wednesday, May 8 will be a full day for all students due to Tulip Time removing the Wednesday parade. On Thursday, May 9, school will be dismissed for kindergarteners at 11:30am. 1st and 2nd graders will remain at school, eat a sack lunch from home, have recess, change into their apparel (if they choose not to wear it to school that day), and be bused to the parade route. More information will come as we get closer to the parade.
Lost and Found
The office is continuing to update our South Side Lost and Found Album as items come into the gray tub in the office. Please check it out to see if any of these items belong to your child. Feel free to email Rachel Steen, to claim your item(s), and we will be sure to get it into your child's backpack.
