End of the Year Picnic

Dear Families,

On Wednesday, May 27 (the last day of school), Kalona Elementary will hold the 12th Annual Family Picnic. This year we will be serving a full meal for adults $3.40, and children $2.85.  The meal will include a burger, chips, veggie, fruit, cookie and milk.

NEW this year...You have the option to bring a sack lunch and drink from home for you and/or your family if you wish.

Your child’s lunch will come out of their lunch account, however we ask that all family members planning to join us that day prepay for all additional lunches by Friday, May 15th.  This will give our cooks time to get an accurate count.  Please send your check or cash upon returning this form.

Visitors can arrive between 10:45 and 11:00.  Please go to your youngest child’s classroom.   We will begin serving lunch at approximately 11:10. Families will be able to sit together in and out of the school and enjoy!  Feel free to bring lawn chairs.

              Serving schedule:    11:10 Fifth grade

                                         11:25 Kindergarten

                                         11:35 First grade

                                         11:45 Second grade

     *3rd grade and 4th grade will have a recess from 11:15-11:45.  Parents are welcome to come and participate.

                                         11:55 Third grade

                                         12:05 Fourth grade

     Please remember these are estimated serving times and they are included for your information.  

                                        

Students will be allowed to leave with their family after the picnic, at 12:30.  Teachers will be available in classrooms at this time (an announcement will be made.) Each student and parent must check out with his or her classroom teachers.  Report cards will be distributed then.

Please fill out and return the  following page to let us know if you are planning to attend.  Only one form per family is necessary.  This will help us get a meal count.  Additionally, let us know if you are planning on taking your child with you after the picnic.

We are looking forward to this day!  Hope to see you there!
