Alcott Spring Fair
One of our most cherished end of year Alcott traditions continues this year, with the annual Spring Fair on Tuesday, June 2nd. Students in grade 5 will organize a morning full of outdoor games and activities for grades K-4 to enjoy with their teachers. It's a great way for our oldest students to build leadership skills, while encouraging community-building across all grades. Families are invited to buy a $10 all-you-can-play ticket to enjoy the Fair. All students will be allowed to participate regardless of ability to pay. You may also donate an extra ticket on behalf of other students. Funds raised support the Fair itself, as well as other 5th grade activities like the upcoming Moving Up ceremony.
Any questions? Reach out to your Room Parent or Kate Dodson (kate_dodson@yahoo.com).

End of Year Ice Cream Party!
To celebrate the end of the school year, the Alcott PTG is hosting an ice cream party! On Friday June 5th, students will go with their class after lunch to receive a pre-scooped ice cream or allergy friendly sorbet from Bedford Farms. Please keep an eye out for a permission email from your classroom teacher. You will also have a chance to pre-select an ice cream flavor for your child. In order to make this event a success we need volunteers! Sign up here to help hand out sweet treats on June 5th. It's a great day for all! Thank you!
