Mrs. Bartz's Kindergarten 2021-2022

  Party and Field Trip Volunteers Below is the schedule of volunteers for our class parties and field trips this year.  I was so happy to see that so many of you wanted to help with our many events!  Please understand that only a limited number of people can help with each event.  I did my best to make sure that everyone who wanted to is able to help with something.   If you are on the list for a party or celebration, the person in charge of that party will contact you a couple of weeks before the party to let you know how you can help.  If you are on the list for a field trip, please watch my blog for the time to be at school on that day.   Also, please remember that younger siblings need to stay at home during these special times because our kindergarteners need our full attention! If you signed up to help in our classroom or to help at home, I will be contacting you via email to set a time to help with class projects, preparing materials, and working with students.  Thank you so muc
