HW:  Return Salsa de Mayo permits. Please let your parents know what you signed up to bring.   See below for the information provided on the permit.

Dear Parents of 8th Grade Spanish,

     On Friday, May 2nd, all students in 8th Grade Spanish classes are invited to attend a Latin dance party we call "Salsa de Mayo."   This is my fourth year to organize this annual event to culminate our middle school Spanish program.  We have been working on our Spanish conversation skills for two years.  Now students will have a chance to put those skills to use and talk with other students in Spanish with similar ability.  Students are also learning to dance a little salsa and merengue, so they should have a great time on the dance floor, as well! 

     All 8^th Grade Spanish students are required to attend the party and will receive 50 points toward their class grade for 4^th quarter.  In case of transportation problems or other after-school conflicts, students must be in attendance and participate in activities from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. to receive credit.  Students who do not attend will be required to do an alternate project to make up the points.  The assignment will be distributed in class and posted on the school blog. 

    We are asking everyone to dress for the occasion and avoid wearing jeans and t-shirts. Boys should wear slacks or khakis with a collared shirt.  Girls can wear dresses, skirts or dress slacks and blouses.  Duval County dress code must still be followed.  NO ONE should wear flip flops or shoes without a strap on the back.

     In order to keep costs at a minimum, I am asking students to donate certain items to supply our Nacho Bar including bottled water, soft drinks, chips, salsa, nacho cheese, chili, and cookies.  There will be a sign-up for these items in class.

     I am also in need of parents to help with set-up, chaperone, serve at the Nacho Bar, and help with clean-up.  If you are interested, please circle that option below and provide a phone and e-mail.

"Muchas gracias" for all of your support with this event and throughout the school year!
