Family Letter from the Principal
Dear Shorewood Families,
I hope this message finds you well and enjoying the early signs of spring. I want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible success of our recent Art Walk on March 25. Our students truly shined as they performed their hip hop routines after a weeklong residency with the Massive Monkees. Their energy, confidence, and creativity were inspiring, and it was wonderful to see so many families cheering them on. Much appreciation to the 2nd grade team, led by Ms. Larson, for leading efforts to bring the Massive Monkees to Shorewood.
As we move into April, I have a few important reminders to share. Our Lost and Found is currently very full. Any unclaimed items will be donated to charity after Spring Break, so please encourage your child to take a look before then.
State testing for our 3rd through 5th graders will begin in late April. Classroom teachers will provide specific testing dates and details as we get closer.
A quick reminder that Spring Break will take place April 6–10. We hope your family enjoys a restful and rejuvenating week.
I also want to extend a heartfelt thank‑you to Edith Lopez, mother of Oliver, for volunteering to support our morning drop‑off. She volunteers a couple mornings each week to help manage traffic from 8:50 to 9:15 and has already made a tremendous impact on the safety and smoothness of this busy time of day. We are deeply grateful for her commitment and generosity.
Thank you, as always, for your partnership and support of our school community.
