VOLUNTEER TRAINING
If you plan to join in one of our many end of year field trips please be reminded that you need to attend a Volunteer Training Session.

TEAM OLYMPICS DAY
Parents, please see the attached form with information on volunteer opportunities for Team Olympics Day, Friday, May 17th in Germantown. On that same form, we are also looking for important information from our Menomonee Falls/Milwaukee families concerning busing needs that day. Thanks!
JUNIOR CHOIR
Please mark your calendars and save the date. Our KML Music Fest performance will be on Friday, April 12th at KML. We will be wearing a dark pair of pants and a nice shirt. Watch the Tuesday news in the next few weeks for practice times and stage times. I will let you know as soon as I am told the times. Plan on it taking about an hour from start to finish between practice and performance for the night. Parents, please email me ASAP if you are having a conflict with that date, so I can plan accordingly. Thank you! Mrs. Strasser
