Hello Parents, 
I am back. I am still trying to figure out what they have done while I have been gone. Next week we will for sure be on a more regular plan. I am glad that Mrs. Bearden was here to be with the 5th graders. I know she loves them! She had great things to say! It also sounded like Biztown went really well! I loved seeing the pictures on Facebook. They looked so professional! Thank you to my parents for going along! I hope you had fun too!!!

I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for being supportive of my absence over the last 3 weeks. Thank you for your prayers, your texts, the cards. It has been a very difficult time, but I was also very comforted knowing your kids were okay. I miss my mom more than I can say, but I do think getting back into the routine will be good. I know for sure she would say the same thing! 


Make sure to look at the calendar for upcoming events.

Below are the notes from the music teacher about next week's concert. 

Dress for the concert is: Mass appropriate slacks or skirts and a nice top that is primarily red, white, and/or blue. 

Remember, we are asking each family to bring one personal care item (toothbrush, toothpaste, bath soap, shampoo, etc.,) that will be donated to a shelter in Des Moines as well as locally. 

Have your children arrive at Creston High School no earlier than 6:30 p.m. next Wednesday, May 4.

Preschool-2nd grade children will meet their teachers in the commons area. Grades 3-8 will meet their teachers in the music rooms.

Lap-A-Thon

On Monday, the kids can wear sweats for the lap a thon. I would strongly advise two pairs of tennis shoes and socks. I have a feeling that ground will still be wet and possibly muddy. They can run in shorts as well.  They can have their devices to listen to music as they run. They should also have a water bottle. 5th graders will now be running in the afternoon. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend! God Bless, Miss Surma
