Andrew Community,
One of the greatest things we can give during this season is blood. By donating blood you can save a life and at the same time help the students raise funds for classroom materials. Below is a flyer, QR Code, and a person to contact to get signed up. I hope to see you there!!
Reminder. LEAP will stay at school today.
LEAP will be staying at school this Thursday, May 2nd.
LEAP will be going to Little Bear Park today. We will return around 5:20pm.
Hello Andrew Ukulele Club families! Our last day of Ukulele Club is May 6th for the Monday group, and May 7th for the Tuesday group. We will be preparing for our Leadership Day Rally and Talent Show performances up until these dates. Please contact Mrs. Stevely with any questions you may have. Thank you for all of your support with our first year of Ukulele Club, and we hope to continue with this opportunity again next year!
Hello Andrew Band Families! Mrs. Stevely will be collecting student instruments and band books on May 13th. This will be after our last performance at the Leadership Day Rally. If your student is playing their instrument in the talent show, they may turn it in on the last day of school, May 24th. Please remind your student of these dates, and make sure they can find their book before then! You should NOT have to pay for them if you do not have to. Thank you for all of your support this school year!
Today is School Bus Driver Appreciation Day. Please give your bus driver a high five and a wave to thank him/her for all that they do to get our students to and from school safely.
Andrew Families,
Here are two recordings of the band and music concert from last night's terrific show. Unfortunately, I got to the record button a little late and missed the first kindergarten/1st-grade song, Down by the Bay. Everything else should be included. I hope you enjoy the show!!

Andrew Families,
Due to the anticipated severe weather hitting our area this afternoon, we are releasing students at 1:30 to ensure everyone gets home safely. With this early release, it means we WILL NOT have afterschool LEAP, tutoring, or ukelele club.
The Andrew School is seeking parent feedback on our consideration of starting our students' school day fifteen minutes earlier for the 2024-2025 school year. Please click the link below to access more information along with a link to submit your feedback in a 2-5 minute survey. https://5il.co/2ije3

Parachute fun in PE class!
The Andrew Student Lighthouse Team is sending our extra and used eclipse glasses to a company that will distribute them to students in Latin American schools. This will allow these students to experience the Solar Eclipse in October. We are glad to see these glasses get used another time and to help out others across the globe. Another way the students of Andrew are helping others!!
