Asbury Thursday Folders – April 25, 2024

Posted April 25, 2024

Principal Message:

Asbury Community,

We can all take a deep breath- CMAS/CoAlt is complete for the 23/24 school year and we can go back to our normal schedule! We are so proud of all our students who took CMAS/CoAlt! We are also proud of all the other students who had shifts in specials times and updated schedules- everyone did a great job! We are eager to jump back into learning and fun! One fun thing that I know I can’t wait for is the dance – this will take place tomorrow, April 26! If you have not joined an Asbury dance, I highly encourage you to get your dancing shoes on and dance your way to a fun time! We will be hosting K-2 from 3:30-4:30 and grades 3-5 from 5:00-6:00. Our theme this year is having a beach party! So bring your beach balls and get ready to dance (not sure how those two things go together LOL)! In addition to that, we also have lots of other fun activities coming up, including Dish-A-Story and Student Led Conferences on April 30 and Field Day on May 17! We also have lots of fun field trips and PBL expos going on. We will also have end of year picnics, so be on the lookout for more information about that and other events!

The end of the year is a fun, busy time.

In Partnership,

Jeanna Doung
