Hello everyone,
It was great getting together with each one of you last week to discuss your child's progress. All your questions and insights were so helpful! Thank you again for all the support you give your children.
I also want to thank my families who gave money contributions to my classroom fund. I feel badly for getting my thank you notes out late (I didn't receive my list of donors until the week before conferences), and besides this, I just found out that a parent who did contribute was not noted on my list. Now I am concerned that other families may have been left off the list as well. I hope this isn't the case, but if it is, please know that I am very grateful for the money you have given me. I have already begun purchasing art and science supplies, books, and tech materials. It's really a treat to be able to get the materials I need to make my students' learning experiences more effective and enjoyable. So, thank you all so much!
Have a good week.

Best regards,

Mrs. Koue

Hello,
I got quite a response to my request for drivers for our NASA trip next month. Thanks to all who volunteered! Unfortunately, only 9 parents can go into the Exploration Encounter facility - and I have 12 parents so far who would like to drive. I wish I could change this, but NASA is firm with this rule. Anyway, I'd like to offer a few options for you all to consider:
1. If you wouldn't mind not coming on this trip (there will be more in the future), please let me know.
2. If you would like to come but wouldn't mind dropping your group off and having a few hours to yourself, please let me know. We will probably be able to double up drivers, so this might work for parents who decide to come together.
3. If you have already been on this trip with an older child, the first two options might work for you as well.
I want you all to know that you are most welcome to come. I would love to have everyone there and am sorry I have to handle it this way.
Please let me know your thoughts by either sending a note in with your child or emailing me.
Thanks,
Mrs. Koue

Hello everyone,
I sent home the permission slip for our field trip to NASA Ames today. Please take a look at it and let me know if you would like to drive. NASA allows only 10 adults (including me), so please sign up early to reserve your spot.
Corrected work folders went home today. This week I included yellow sheets only for students who are missing work.
Thanks.
