Family Fun Night: A Multicultural Festival:
Friday's multicultural festival was a big hit!  All who attended are looking forward to next year already! We would like to give special thanks to Matti Acworth, Ashley Serotta, and Laura Studley for all their work organizing and presenting our first-ever cultural festival.  Also thank you to all the families who shared traditions from around the world.  The Cutler teachers are all excited to share the Mobile Cultural Library selections with their classes.

Mrs. Graham is Retiring
It is with mixed feelings that we announce the retirement of Mrs. Graham at the end of this school year.  We are so happy for Mrs. Graham as she retires to spend time pursuing her love of music and travel. We will truly miss Mrs. Graham who has taught at Cutler School for 16 years.  We are thrilled that Mrs. Graham will return to Cutler School in the fall to offer String Jam to our fifth graders.  She has impacted so many students with her love of science, math, nature, and music!

High School Senior Parade
Last Thursday, we were so happy to welcome the seniors from HWRHS who attended Cutler School.  After parading in caps and gowns throughout the building, the graduates met with the 5th graders to answer questions and offer advice for life after elementary school.  We had several retired teachers return to celebrate with the graduates.  The celebration ended with lemonade, cookies, reminiscing with class photos, and playing on the playground.  We wish all the graduates the best of luck in their future endeavors!

Reminders re: arrival, bike safety

Arrival time begins at 8:15 and we do not have any supervision until that time.  Please make sure that your children do not arrive prior to 8:15.  Please be cautious riding your bike to school, and remember to walk your bike once you arrive on school property.  At dismissal, remind your children to walk their bikes until they are off school property to prevent any accidents with the buses and car pickup line.  Please remind students to wear their helmets!  


Health Office News
Reminder: All medications including EpiPens and Inhalers must be picked up by an adult on or before Wed June 22nd.

I am still looking for current physical exams for both 4th and 5th grade students.
Thank You,

Lynne

Family Fun Night - A Cultural Festival
The return of Family Fun Night was a HUGE success! From delicious food to wonderful entertainment, a great time was had by all. A big “thank you” goes out to Martha Acworth, Laura Studley, and Ashley Serotta for planning such an amazing event, which we know will continue as a Cutler tradition for years to come! 

Attention 5th Grade parents:  

How crazy is it to think our kids will be middle schoolers in just a few months?  

This year, the Friends of Miles River Middle School ordered a bunch of MRMS T-shirts and sweatshirts to sell and raise funds for Friends of MRMS. Cassie Honda and I ordered extra t-shirts/hoodies thinking of the incoming 6th graders.  

We are hoping to have a table on June 7 at MRMS during the 5th-grade parent/guardian Welcome Night, but I can't promise availability at that point. 

Hoodies are $30, we have Youth L & Youth XL and Adult XS & L. We are out of Small and Medium at the moment.

T-Shirts are $15, we have Adult XS, S, M, Large & XL. 

Payments can be made by Venmo (@Maira-Fredrickson) last 4 digits 7787. 

Please write your child's name, school, teacher, specify the quantity, item and size that you are looking for.

I will deliver the orders to the school.
