Greetings from Onondaga Road School!

 Jump, Jump...Jump Around!

Our 4th Grade Jump Rope Club showed off their moves today, and our 3rd graders watched in excitement and anticipation of becoming 4th graders some day soon!  Thanks to Mr. Lane and Miss Clark for coaching the team, and thanks to Mrs. Cook for recording this video for your viewing pleasure.  Enjoy!

Have a great weekend.  
Sincerely, Mrs. Clark

Greetings from Onondaga Road!

Spring is in the Air! 

Here are a few dates to remember:

#PositivityInAction
Next week we will learn about the Positivity Project character trait called "purpose."  Per John F. Kennedy, "Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction."  

NYS Math Assessments
Next week, on Wednesday and Thursday, our 3rd and 4th graders will take the NYS Math assessment.

Jump Rope Club
Next Friday, our 4th Grade Jump Rope Club will perform the tricks they have been learning for their classmates!  We will record the performance and post it for all of you to see, so be on the lookout.

PTA
Our next meeting is on Thursday, May 5, at 6:30, and we will discuss plans for next month's Family Picnic (being held the evening of June 2nd).  Please come if you would like to be involved in the planning or if you can help in any way.  Stay tuned for details to be sent home about the picnic. 

Chorus-Band-Orchestra Concert
Our 3rd and 4th graders will perform their spring concert at the West Genesee High School auditorium on Wednesday, May 11th, at 7:00 p.m.

OR Spring Open House
Our school Open House is on Thursday, May 19 at 6:00-7:00.  Come to see your child's classroom and the many things they have accomplished this year.  After touring the building, feel free to grab a cool snack from the ice cream truck which will be parked in the back lot by the playground!

Memorial Day Weekend (and a Bonus Day!?)
Schools will be closed on Friday, May 27 and Monday, May 30 in observance of Memorial Day.  Tentatively, plan on schools being closed on Tuesday, May 31, too, as that will be a "snow day" (unless we have an emergency closing between now and then!).

Unity Day
On Friday, May 20, we will celebrate Unity Day throughout our West Genesee School District, sponsored by the District PTO/PTA.  The flyer posted below will be sent home next week so that you can use the URL code to scan for information. Let's wear blue and gold as a symbol of unity!  
 
Please Note: For anyone interested, here is a link to order a Unity Day T-shirt from Syracuse Swag.  Hurry though; shirts must be ordered before April 30th!  

Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Jeannette Clark
