ND OF THE SCHOOL YEAR
It’s hard to believe that the end of the school year is only a few days away! We want to thank each of our families for your help and support this year. We hope that you have a wonderful, safe, and relaxing summer, and we look forward to seeing everyone again in August.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 5TH GRADE GRADUATES
We want to congratulate our 5th Grade Class of 2019! We are so proud of you! You will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers as you enter Mt. Vernon Junior High.

2019-2020 SCHOOL CALENDAR
The 2019-2020 calendar is being sent home today so that you can make note of when school will be in session. The calendar will also be posted in Sycamore and on the school website.

PICK UP YOUR CHILD’S MEDICINE
If your child has any medicine, an inhaler, or an epi-pen in the office, we need you to stop by and pick it up sometime next week.

DONATE USED BACKPACKS
We have the opportunity to partner with a local church by donating gently used backpacks which will be used to help the homeless. If you would like to donate your child’s backpack at the end of the school year, simply send us a note, and we will keep his/her backpack on the last day of school.

A NOTE FROM MRS. EICKHOFF
Dear St. Matthew Families,
You may have heard that I am not returning next school year. I am very sad to be leaving St. Matthew. However, my new position will allow me to spend more time with my own children and be closer to home. Thank you for allowing me to teach your children throughout the past six years. I have enjoyed getting to know them. You will be in my thoughts and prayers for many years to come.
With love,
Mrs. Eickhoff
