This Week at Spirits (Week 5 of this Session)

Mon, 14 May 2012 07:07:15 -0500

1. We hope everyone had a very happy Mother's Day!

2. This is Week 5 of Session V. This Saturday, May 19th is the PDD for our summer session. Pay by noon on Saturday to reserve your spot in your summer class and save $5 off of your tuition.

3. This Sunday, May 20th is the Special Olympics Meet. Many of our coaches, parents and students will be heading to Olathe, Kansas for the competition. Drive safely. Have fun! And have a great meet!

4. The Summer Schedule is up on the website (http://spiritsgym.com/SpiritsGym/Home.html) and available at the gym. Our next school year schedule should be up by July 4th and you can start registering for your school year classes not too long after that. The schedule will remain mostly the same. Sometimes we have to tweak a few things here and there, but otherwise we try to keep it the same as much as possible. If we have not been offering a class when you need it please let us know so we can look into it.

5. Many of the deadlines are approaching for our summer camps. Don't delay. Get your registrations in today! Registration forms are available online. Just click on the link below...

6. Our Powerful word this month is Trustworthiness, which means...You can count on me (to do the right thing)! If you have a chance, please read Parent’s Perch this week. It always provides a great springboard to some interesting discussions with the kids.

7. We had another great lunch bunch this past Thursday. Thank you so much to Miss Diana who has done an amazing job at coordinating the activities. And thank you very much to all of the parents who brought their children. We know they had a great time! We'll begin them again in September.

8. The Spring Show was an absolute success! Our students did an incredible job. We were so impressed with how much they have learned and how well they performed! Moms and dads...you have so much to be proud of. We are so proud of them too! Be sure to send some of your favorite pictures to krispirits@mac.com.

9. Posters and information are up about the Visa National Championships which will be here in St. Louis in June. The same kids who are competing at the upcoming Olympics will be competing here. Hey...if you can't make it to England for the Olympics, St. Louis is the next best thing. Should be some amazing competition. See you there!

10. This Friday and Saturday are our last two open gyms of this school year. Be sure to attend and have a great time. We'll start those up again after Labor Day in the fall.

Remember to bring back your monthly projects. They typically take just a few minutes and can even be done just after class here at the gym.
