Dear Parents,


      Friday, May 23rd I shall give you back your child. The same child you confidently entrusted to my care last fall. I give them back pounds heavier, inches taller, and months wiser than they were then.

     Although they would have attained their growth in spite of me, it has been my pleasure and privilege to watch their personality unfold day by day and marvel at this miracle of development.

     I give them back a bit reluctantly. Having spent ten months together in the narrow confines of Campus School, we have grown close and we shall always retain a little of each other. We have lived, celebrated, TCAP tested, laughed, learned, and enriched our lives together this year.

     Remember that I shall always be interested in your child and their future endeavors, wherever they go, whatever they do, whoever they become. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be your child’s teacher this year

Respectfully,

Mr. Shadow

​​Banquet money

• ​​Banquet money is due Friday by 8:00 a.m.  We must deposit the money during our support time in order to get a check written.  We will be unable to take any ticket money after the start of the school day.
  
• Banquet information can be found on my blog.
• Please check the campusschool.org website for important schoolwide dates.  
• The last day of Campus School is a full day even though other SCS schools are a half day.  Just FYI!
• One quick clarification about bug spray/sunscreen for camp.  It can be a pump spray, it just cannot be the aerosol spray.  If you have any questions about camp, I will be glad to help.

Banquet Information

• All students, even non-dining students, must be present by 6:50.
• Tickets for the banquet will be sent home next Monday in a sealed envelope.  Please look for this envelope and secure it.  We cannot reissue tickets if they are lost.  The tickets must be handed to the ticket takers at the buffet line in order to receive dinner.  
• Dinner will be served promptly at 6:00 pm.  We strongly recommend you arrive no later than 6:15 pm if you are eating dinner.  
• Guests that are not dining should arrive no later than 6:50 pm.  No tickets are required to enter the ballroom.
• If your child cannot attend for any reason, please email me immediately.  We will need to reorganize our certificate presentation list if this occurs. 
• The University Center does not allow balloons of any kind in their facility.  Because of the height of the ceilings, if a balloon floats to the top of the building and gets caught in the air ducts, the charge is about $1,000 for the cost of a special crane to remove it.  Therefore, please do not bring any kind of balloon with you.  However, flowers or other gifts for your child are welcome.  
• Parking is available in the general lot with a University permit or in the garage for a very low fee (less than $5).  Please advise your guests that may not be familiar with Campus to park in the Zach Curlin garage.
• The banquet will be held on the 3rd floor of the University Center.  
• The program will last no later than 8:15 pm.

Lastly, tables will seat 10 guests.  Because of the large number of guests attending (almost 400), families must share tables.  You may want to partner up with other families ahead of time and plan to sit together.

Students should wear semi-formal (think Church appropriate) attire for this event.

Ladies
