I hope you had a lovely spring break.  The weather is so beautiful this time of year.  It makes me grateful to live here.  Did you and your family do anything related to science?  I bet you did!  Science surrounds us EVERYWHERE!  Do you watch documentaries with your child?  Did you know that you can rent DVD's and CD's from the library for FREE?  I love that!  Just make sure you return them on time, otherwise there is a $2 fine for every day they are late!

Spring Picnic is this Saturday.  We are collecting items to be placed in a basket for the auction.  We have only had 2 items donated.  :(   It is going to be a very, very sad basket unless every child donates at least 1 item.  We are asking every family to participate and donate at least 1 item.  Be creative!  Pool stuff, beach stuff, umbrellas, sun screen, sun glasses, toys, bags, drinks, snow cone makers, popsicle molds, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, sand toys, insulated water bottles, or maybe you know someone that would donate passes to Golfland or Sunsplash.  I'm excited about the possibilities.

15 days until AIMS testing.  Be thinking that the week of April 14 is AIMS testing.  Please try not to schedule any doctor/dentist/ortho appts.  Hopefully everyone will be healthy and strong and not miss any days.  AIMS makeups will be held a few days after the AIMS test.

Thanks for all that you do to help your child excel here at ASU Prep Academy.

scientifically yours,

Mrs. Biggs
