Dear Touchstone Parents,
I want to start off my thanking everyone who attended our Celebration of Art event. It was great to see the students and families come together as a community to showcase the wonderful learning and hard work the students put into each of their projects. We had such a great turnout for this fun event!
We will be kicking off May with two different celebrations; Teacher Appreciation Week and Mother’s Day. This all happens the week of May 7-11th. The teachers truly make Touchstone the wonderful school that it is for all of our students. I would like to thank each of the teachers and staff for their hard work and dedication to the students and families. The PTO has organized a special thank you lunch for them during this week. This year you will also find “Thank You Card” flower pots each with a teachers or staff name on it. Feel free to drop off a special thank you, card or gift-card in their flower pots during the week! If you would like to celebrate their hard work in your own way, you are welcome to do so, but not required.
Our Mother’s Day Celebration is on Wednesday, May 9, from 6-7pm in your child’s classroom. Each class is planning their own special way to celebrate their moms or other important person in their life. We hope you can make this wonderful event!
Parent/Teacher conferences will be held during the day on Friday, May 25. During this time you will have a chance to meet with your child’s teacher to discuss successes from the year and set up goals for next year. Please look for a sign-up sheet on the classroom doors as we get closer to the conference date. There will be no school or camp on conference day.
I am happy to announce that we have a new school cook since Ms. Evelyn retired from cooking at our school. Please welcome Ms.Ruth. She is looking forward to preparing wonderful meals and snacks for your children.
Just a friendly reminder to please make sure you driving slowly and paying attention while in the parking lot. While I know many of you are in hurry during drop off/pick up, I please ask that you refrain from using your phones and paying extra attention to your surroundings. Thank you all for your cooperation in working together in this matter to help keep everyone safe.
Thank you,
Elise West; Principal

If your child has played with a toy instrument or listened to a familiar song, you’ve probably seen his face light up or his body sway back and forth in enjoyment. Music is fun for young children and helps them develop creativity, fine motor skills, vocabulary, and self-esteem. In the[.....]
