GFGA 2009: Philadelphia - The GFGA was a great - although soggy - success! I want to thank all of the parents who helped guide our class around the City of Brotherly Love. They kept the children focused, happy, fed, and as dry as possible with great patience and care. I couldn�t have done it without them!
Book Return - Please search your house and car for any TDS items that need to be returned this week. In particular, please send in the Everyday Math Student Reference Book and any library books or textbooks that you find.
Middle School Graduation Dance - The Middle School has continued their tradition of inviting the newest batch of Middle Schoolers, our own dear fifth graders, to their Graduation Dance. The dance will take place on Thursday evening from 7:00 to 10:00 PM in the school gym. Dress is casual, although still within the school dress code. What a great opportunity to kick off their Middle School years!
Summer Concert � I would like to invite you all to a concert in which I�ll be singing with the Women�s Voices Chorus.

Admission is free, but donations will be accepted for the Animal Protection Society of Orange County. For more details, see the Women�s Voice Chorus website: www.womensvoiceschorus.org.
