Dear Families,

It is from 5:30 until 7:00.
It will be potluck.
We will begin performances at 5:30 and then eat about 6:30 or when performances are done.
We will finish up with a couple of community dances.

Please plan on helping with clean up too!
Thank you and don't hesitate to contact us if you have a question.

Letter To Families
I have also put a hard copy of this in your take home folders.
Dear Trillium Community-
It is with a very heavy heart that I am letting you all know that I will not be returning to Trillium next year. Although I am leaving Trillium I am not leaving the field of education. I am enrolling in a Masters program here in Portland and am excited about growing as a teacher. This has been a very difficult choice as I cannot overstate how wonderful and inspiring this year's class has been. To see this year's second graders come into their own after being with them for three school years has been truly amazing. It breaks my heart that I will not be with our first graders as they continue their educational journey next year.
Finally, I want to thank all of you for your support, for creating such a wonderful community at Trillium, and for sending the absolute greatest kids to our school. I know I will always look back at the last four years as some of the best of my life. I will miss my time with your students greatly.
Best,
Whitney Sweet

Talent Show
Hi all,
The following amended proposal passed. Please use this to inform your students and families so they can participate!
Thanks,
Jeremy
I propose an all school talent show like we used to have in coordination with the Trillium Record release party. My mom has talked to Kirk who has had past experience with Trillium talent shows and he says he will help out with it. My mom will also help out with organizing. Some possible dates that don't have anything else on the calendar are the 8th or 9th of June. It would be from 5:30 till 8 p.m. in the courtyard. We shall have a sign up sheet in the common space for the talent show. There will be room for 24 people. We will have auditions (to check for appropriateness) on Tuesday, May 31st directly after school. We will put together a committee of staff, parents and kids (by sign-up) to organize the event, oversee auditions etc. This committee will decide whether to have a cash donation box and/or canned food donation box. Parents will be encouraged to attend. There is no required fee for attendance. No food will be provided.

2nd/3rd Potluck
Dear Parents of Super Second and Thrilling Third Graders,
You are invited to a "Transition" potluck! The current third grade students and families, along with the 3-4-5 advisors would like to welcome our incoming 3rd graders to the Intermediate class, build relationships and help answer questions on TUESDAY, May 24 from 6:30-8:00.
Our incoming third graders will have already shadowed in a potential advising classroom (Shadow days are May 12, 16 and 17), and will meet again with current third graders and advisors to play group games at the potluck. Meanwhile, present 3rd grade parents will field questions about the "intermediate" transition, communication and journey of a third grader.
Our evening will begin with a potluck at 6:30. Please bring your own plates and utensils for your family as well as the assigned "dish". If your last name begins:
A-I: please bring a main dish or salad to share
J-R: please bring a dessert to share
S-Z: please bring a drink to share
At 7:00 students will play group games together while parents meet for a "3rd grade Q & A", and at 7:30 our intermediate advisors will swap, so parents and students have the opportunity to meet, discuss and play games with ALL advisors.
We look forward to seeing you there!

This is an exciting and bright new look with many improvements and new features such as a volunteer page where we will post new volunteer opportunities and say thank you to the many people who give their time to us!
Yay Trillium!

Two More Things
Forgot to include this info in this morning's post:
1). There is homework available outside the classroom in the take home folder.
2). Imre was awesome/kind enough to donate a LARGE bag of pretzels to the class! I'm hoping this will last us until the end of the year. Thanks Imre!

No More School Snack
Hi everyone,
I'm coming with bad news that we will no longer be distributing a school snack for the rest of the year. As you know, our budget has been pretty thin this year and Trillium has had to make some major changes. For the past couple months I've been paying for snack out of my own pocket and I just can't do it any longer. It kills me to do so. Please remember that school lunches are free from now until the end of the year and students are always welcome to seconds. If anyone feels up to donating a bag of pretzels, then I can continue to do school snack, but as of tomorrow snacks should come from home. I apologize for this.
Best,
Whitney
